GPUs on Magnolia

Magnolia has 6 GPU nodes with 2 NVIDIA L40S GPUs each. The GPU nodes are in the gpuq “partition” or queue.

The CUDA toolkit is available via the cuda12.6/toolkit module.

The GPUs are not currently configured in Bright Cluster Manager or Slurm. We hope to have this fixed shortly. In the meantime, we advise users to request an entire node so other jobs aren’t placed on the same node. The following command starts an interactive job on a GPU node, requesting all CPUs and memory:
srun -p gpuq -c 32 --mem 500g --time 1:00:00 --pty bash
