== About GPUs at T2B ==
 
We do not have any GPUs at T2B. That does not mean you do not have access to some.
 
 
=== If you belong to a flemish university (VUB, UAntwerpen, UGent) ===
----
 
<br>You have access to all VSC clusters, with quite some choice in GPUs.
Have a look at all VSC clusters available and their hardware on [https://docs.vscentrum.be/en/latest/hardware.html this page].<br>
-> For instance, the '''VUB Hydra''' cluster has 4 nodes with 2 x '''Nvidia Tesla P100''' cards and 8 nodes with 2 x '''Nvidia A100'''.
 
 
==== Getting  an account ====
You can easily get an account valid throughout all VSC clusters, just follow their documentation [https://docs.vscentrum.be/en/latest/index.html here].
 
 
==== Access GRID ressources ====
We have checked that at least on VUB Hydra, you have access to /cvmfs, and can only use /pnfs via [[GridStorageAccess|grid commands]] (so you can't do a '''ls /pnfs''').
To get an environment similar to what is on T2B cluster, just source the following:
source /cvmfs/grid.cern.ch/centos7-umd4-ui-211021/etc/profile.d/setup-c7-ui-python3-example.sh
 
==== Support and Feedback ====
As we do not manage any of the clusters, prefer contacting their support, adding us in CC if you want.
If your cluster does not have what you need (like /cvmfs, etc), feel free to inform us, we will try to discuss with the other admins how to make this possible. Please note that VSC has a strict process to new software, so it might take some time.<br>
Also, as this mixed usage of our resources and GPUs from other clusters is rather new, we would appreciate any feedback you might have !

=== If you belong to a wallonian university (ULB, UCL) ===
----
 
<br>You have access to all CECI clusters, with quite some choice in GPUs.
Have a look at all CECI clusters available and their hardware on [https://www.ceci-hpc.be/clusters.html this page].<br>
-> For instance, the '''UMons Dragon2''' cluster has 2 nodes with 2 x '''Nvidia Tesla V100''' cards.
 
 
==== Getting  an account ====
You can easily get an account valid throughout all CECI clusters, just follow their documentation [https://login.ceci-hpc.be/init/ here].
 
 
==== Access GRID ressources ====
At this time, there is no /cvmfs access, therefore no access to /pnfs resources.<br>
You would have to use rsync to transfer files to/from T2B if needed.
 
==== Support and Feedback ====
As we do not manage any of the clusters, prefer contacting their support, adding us in CC if you want.
If your cluster does not have what you need (like /cvmfs, etc), feel free to inform us, we will try to discuss with the other admins how to make this possible.<br>
