This Thursday, December 1st, at 1pm ET, we’ll have another Tips and Tricks call.
Alan Chalker, coPI on the Open OnDemand project, will give the same presentation that was given at the SC22 Open OnDemand User Group Birds of a Feather on Nov 15th. The presentation is broken into four general topics and will be posted online:
A brief overview of OOD for anyone not familiar with it
A summary of the project roadmap
Highlights of some items from the community
General audience discussion
Please see the previous post for how to sign up for the recurring Zoom calls. After signing up, the person-unique link will be valid for all future calls.
We will skip January and meet again the first Thursday of February, folks from Idaho National Laboratory will talk about their implementation of dynamic forms in interactive apps submission forms.
If anyone has any Ondemand tips or tricks they would like to share in future calls, please, reply to this thread or edit our Call Topics document, Call topics - Google Docs.
Everyone have great holidays and good start of the New Year.
Happy New Year everyone, it’s February already next week, bringing the next Tips and Tricks call, on Thursday, February 2nd at 1pmET/12pmCT/11amMT/10amPT.
Open OnDemand Dynamic Forms at INL HP Brandon Biggs, Idaho National Laboratory
OnDemand forms can be dynamically changed on the client side and the server side. In this presentation we’ll show you examples of server side and client side changes that were made to increase the usability of forms for users.
Thanks again to Brandon and INL for presenting in February. The call recording and slides are in February 2 2023 - Google Drive
In less than two weeks we will have the March call, the Amazon Web Services folks will talk about Open OnDemand on the AWS. I will update with an abstract closer to the call.
We have an open slot for the April call, so, please, if you have anything interesting let me know. A list of potential topics of interest is at Call topics - Google Docs.
Although it may not look like it outside, it’ll be the first Thursday of March this week. The next OOD Tips and Tricks call is this Thursday 3/2 at 1pm ET / 12pm CT / 11am MT / 10 am PT.
Chris Pollard from Amazon Web Services will go over OOD on AWS.
Abstract:
Do you want to innovate without on-premise HPC constraints while still providing end-users a familiar Open OnDemand interface? Join Chris Pollard, Solutions Architect manager at AWS, as he walks through a reference architecture for deploying Open OnDemand to AWS. We’ll cover the benefits of the reference architecture, AWS ParallelCluster, and how OOD and ParallelCluster can work together to give you the familiar OOD portal with the power of AWS compute.
The April Tips and Tricks call will take place on Thursday, April 6th at 1pm ET.
Topic: Open OnDemand Version 3.0
Gerald Byrket, Ohio Supercomputer Center
After a significant amount of effort from both the core Open OnDemand developers and community members such as Harvard and CSC Finland, the Open OnDemand project team is excited to announced the release of version 3.0! We previously described this as version 2.1, but have decided it is more appropriate to number it as a major new version. The release makes available many significant new features, many of which will be described in this call.
@alanc Thanks for the preview of the 3.0 release notes. I noticed an error in the Breaking Changes item. The path for versions 2.0 and below is missing the ondemand part at the beginning. It should be ~/ondemand/data/sys/dashboard/batch_connect/sys/<APPNAME>/context.json.
The May call is next week, on Thursday, 5/4 at 1pm ET / 12pm CT / 11am MT / 10am PT.
Nick Choi and Damian Pietrus from MathWorks will cover best practices for running MATLAB and Simulink on HPC clusters using Open OnDemand. The following topics will be covered:
Running MATLAB in Open OnDemand
Running MATLAB in Jupyter
Connecting to and running multi-node jobs on HPC clusters from an Open OnDemand MATLAB instance
We did not figure out any presenter for June call that’s coming up this Thursday, June 1st, so, let’s have an Open Mic session, if anyone has anything interesting to share, feel free to prepare a few slides, or just unmute and sound off.
I will help to start the things with some customizations that we have done recently to our interactive apps, which I have presented recently at the RMACC Symposium.
That is, we will be meeting on Thursday June 1st at 1pm ET / 12 pm CT / 11 am MT / 10 am PT.
If anyone has not registered for the call the registration link is at Meeting Registration - Zoom. It is valid for all the future calls.
