Install Gaussian 16
by yohann.clement＠univ-lyon1.fr 19 Oct '22

19 Oct '22

Hello, I'm trying to install Gaussain 16 on Qlustar. I have some troubles to install it due to some right management. Indeed, Gaussian does not allow the directory on which it is installed to be accessible to others. The director should only be accessible to the owner and a group. I have created a group called gauss with Qluman in which I have added a user for a test. But the created group is not recognized in Chroot-focal. Could you tell me if you alreeady have installed G16 in Qlustar. If so could you kindly send me the procedure. Best,

Qlustar 12 and openmpi 4.0
by rolandas.naujikas＠mif.vu.lt 03 Oct '22

03 Oct '22

Hi, In my cluster I found problems running some MPI applications (for e.g. via mpi4py) and it is related to defaults in /etc/openmpi/4.0/openmpi-mca-params.conf. When I changed btl to ^openib or to vader,selft,tcp (in case tcp nodes) - it started to work, but in this case it doesn't use UCX anymore. Regards Rolandas

centos8/AlmaLinux chroot has no repos
by deroshia＠uga.edu 19 Aug '22

19 Aug '22

Hi All, Either with a fresh install of the latest Qlustar or when creating a centos8 chroot in Qluman (or with manage-qlustar-chroot), I see the following errors and no /etc/yum.repos.d directory is created: [Harmless] Failed to find download link for qlustar-12.0-base [Harmless] Failed to find download link for qlustar-12.0-repos Running post-install script /usr/lib/rinse/qlustar-12.0-centos8/post-install.sh: error: /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-AlmaLinux: import read failed(2). error: /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-8: import read failed(2). error: /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-QLUSTAR: import read failed(2). error: /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-OpenHPC-2: import read failed(2). Running dnf makecache Unable to detect release version (use '--releasever' to specify release version) post-install.sh : done. Installation complete. == Done with basic chroot. Starting to add extra packages ... == Unable to detect release version (use '--releasever' to specify release version) Error: There are no enabled repositories in "/etc/yum.repos.d", "/etc/yum/repos.d", "/etc/distro.repos.d". ========= ------- Error ------- ========= manage-qlustar-chroot: Execution in chroot "/srv/apps/chroots/centos8" failed: /usr/bin/yum -y install bash-completion git man ql-hpl-tools redhat-lsb-core singularity telnet unzip zip lmod-defaults-gnu9-openmpi4-ohpc ssmtp ==> Exiting ... Poking around in the repos site, I can see qlustar-12.0-base and qlustar-12.0-repos in an older directory, but not in the AlmaLinux repo directory. If I download and copy those older rpms into the chroot and install them, then re-run the install chroot command with the overwrite option, I can get the chroot to complete without errors: rpm -ivh qlustar-12.0-repos-12.0.0.7-1.ql.el8.noarch.rpm qlustar-12.0-base-12.0.0.7-1.ql.el8.noarch.rpm manage-qlustar-chroot -v -a create -A 'amd64' -b '/srv/apps/chroots' -d 'centos' -n centos8 -r '12.0' -s 'centos8' --openhpc --overwrite Have any of you been able to set up a centos8 chroot successfully with a new install using the qlustar-installer-12.0.1-0.iso? Thanks in advance, Jeff

Enabling pam_slurm and pam_slurm_adopt
by jan.kreps＠cvut.cz 04 Aug '22

04 Aug '22

Hello everyone, I want to enable pam_slurm and pam_slurm_adopt in my new cluster. In https://qlustar.com/about-qlustar/workload-management is written, that "QluMan provides an option to enable the Slurm PAM module." Unfortunately I can not find such an option in QluMan. In Qlustar documentation I did not find this information either. Can you provide information how to achieve this? Thanks Jan

Password sync for ldap users.
by saeed.s.jahromi＠gmail.com 02 Jul '22

02 Jul '22

Greetings, I have qluster 12 installed on a small HPC in our university. To create users remotely, I usually use the terminal and .ldif files to create users. I also use the following command to change users passwords from the terminal: ldappasswd -Z -D "cn=admin,dc=gavazang,dc=qlustar" -W -S "cn= saeed,ou=users,dc=gavazang,dc=qlustar" This works and the password is changed. However, the problem is that once in a while the user cant connect to the cluster and I have to reset the password again and again and this happens frequently. Should I do anything to sync the passwords after changing them? Or am I doing something wrong here? thanks in advance for your assistance
