HPC Ecosystems OpenHPC Sysadmin Guide¶

Welcome to the official documentation for managing OpenHPC clusters within the HPC Ecosystems Project.

This guide is designed to be:

🧮 Audit-safe: All procedures are symbolically tagged and version-controlled.
🔁 Reproducible: Built for maintainable workflows across diverse hardware.

🔧 What You'll Find Here¶

The basic OpenHPC commands you'll need for day-to-day administration of an HPC Ecosystems OpenHPC system.
Cluster provisioning workflows
VNFS and PXE boot optimization
Symbolic mapping for Slurm and NFS troubleshooting
Storage and RAID configuration tips
Training and onboarding modules

🤖 Acknowledgments¶

This guide was developed with support from Microsoft Copilot, an AI companion that assisted in structuring symbolic workflows, refining documentation logic, and aligning technical clarity with collaborative goals. Copilot’s contributions reflect a commitment to maintainable, equitable, and future-proof HPC infrastructure. Plus, it just shows how overworked I am and how I have had to resort to non-human help to get my job done.
