Sherif: we need to have one hat to fit most of all but we can't have one hat that fit all Stack: Feedback regarding Sherif's idea that generic idea's are not great idea and there is a bad performance Greg: we need to put building blocks in the this repo and will make life easiest and lower the barriers like Spack, slurm and easybuild
Devid (NezSez): Some end users won't understand / know anything about HPC and just needs to use the HPC, such as Maya or dynamic fluids
Neil: some tools can be very easily an entry point for organization and teams to use HPC like jupiter playbook
Stack: HPC is usually tuned to different needs, we can reach to other HPC that are running Rocky to ask them to promate rocky and establish a dialog to get an idea of what things that they are running into rocky
Matt: HPC out of the box there are few projects that doing that and we don't need to run in circles of what we are going to
Balaji: SIG for scientific application that focus on support the application and optimization, and HPC suggest the architecture to reach max capabilities
Greg: Agreeing with stack we don't want to provide application that there are tools that do that
Gregory Kurtzer (Chat): A simple strategy might be just to start assembling a list of packages we want to include as part of SIG/HPC, and be open minded as this list expands.
Neil Hanlon(Chat): actually have to leave now, but, if we make some sort of toolkit, it has to be quite unopinionated... OpenStack-Ansible is a good example of being unopinionated about how you run your openstack cluster(s), but give you all the tools to customize and tune to your unique situation, too

* HPC End-user ?maybe?\n* HPC Systems admins and engineers, to provide them with tools and know how to build HPC clusters using Rocky linux\n* HPC Vendors, however the SIG has to be vendor neutral and agnostic\n
"},{"location":"events/meeting-notes/2023-04-20/#discussions","title":"Discussions:","text":"Stack: we need to make sure that we are not redoing efforts that already done with other groups Greg engaged with Open HPC community and providing some core packages such as apptainer, mpi, openHPC
Sherif: we need to have one hat to fit most of all but we can't have one hat that fit all Stack: Feedback regarding Sherif's idea that generic idea's are not great idea and there is a bad performance Greg: we need to put building blocks in the this repo and will make life easiest and lower the barriers like Spack, slurm and easybuild
Devid (NezSez): Some end users won't understand / know anything about HPC and just needs to use the HPC, such as Maya or dynamic fluids
Neil: some tools can be very easily an entry point for organization and teams to use HPC like jupiter playbook
Stack: HPC is usually tuned to different needs, we can reach to other HPC that are running Rocky to ask them to promate rocky and establish a dialog to get an idea of what things that they are running into rocky
Matt: HPC out of the box there are few projects that doing that and we don't need to run in circles of what we are going to
Balaji: SIG for scientific application that focus on support the application and optimization, and HPC suggest the architecture to reach max capabilities
Greg: Agreeing with stack we don't want to provide application that there are tools that do that
Gregory Kurtzer (Chat): A simple strategy might be just to start assembling a list of packages we want to include as part of SIG/HPC, and be open minded as this list expands.
Neil Hanlon(Chat): actually have to leave now, but, if we make some sort of toolkit, it has to be quite unopinionated... OpenStack-Ansible is a good example of being unopinionated about how you run your openstack cluster(s), but give you all the tools to customize and tune to your unique situation, too

Sherif: Suggesting to start building packages
Nick: To build the community we need to start looking into documentation and forums
Stack: we need to be careful and have strong justification for rebuilding stuff that exists in Epel
Greg: asked how HPC centre prefer to manage / or already managing their slurm setup
Few members mentioned one of the following two methods: * Keep upgrading on minor version of slurm * Keep upgrading on minor version of slurm then a major upgrade in a scheduled maintains window
Greg and Nick: adding major-minor version in package name something like python2/3
Sherif: Asking about Testing methodology with testing team
Stack: They hope at some point they are able to test all sigs and working on getting OpenQA build for this

Jeremy: Clear a bit of distro related stuff from openHPC would be great such as automake / autoconf
Stack: We need to have a base line so people can start use rocky on HPC and make Rocky accessible
Chris: A Demo / technical talk in 4 weeks
Chris: Are we going to focus on 8 and 9?
Stack and Chris, would be great if we can focus on 9
Sherif: I hope we can do both but with 9 in the spotlight \"this needs to be a SIG decision\"
Stack: Question, if we start moving openHPC within HPC sig are they going support more distros, we don't want to break packages for other EL distros
Chris: so far testing on Rocky as the only supported EL distro

Jeremy: mentioning intel light weight kernel https://github.com/intel/mos
Chris: asking if there is any benchmark, hard numbers between shipped kernel and light weight kernel, so far, nothing solid
Sherif: Slurm now is build but not in standard path and we agreed we are going to move standard path

Greg and Chris, we can also contribute to openHPC documentation
