| <H> | Dr. O here @ 4pm. any info i should report to him? open up my bridge? |
| <T> | i don't really have anything for Doc O, tbh, need to figure out why the jobs aren't exiting properly for lustre, but was dorking with vmware thepast few days |
| <T> | asking about if we replace kefel, if one of the 48-core amd boxes is okay, but that's kind of a different thing altogehter |
| <Me> | H: redouble efforts to poll for hpc candidate? |
| <Me> | besides that, "thanks for the opportunity, sorry things didn't work out" |
| <H> | HPC people seem like a rare breed and difficult to find |
| <Me> | that sounds expensive |
| <H> | so jobs exiting oddly on lustre, and kefel supplement/replacement |
| <H> | what sounds expensive? |
| <Me> | the description |
| <J> | not so much expensive; rather they want bigger and better toys |
| <J> | ...which we don't have |
| <Me> | right. that still sounds expensive. |
| <H> | they are looking to hire an associate dean of scientific computing. meeting one this week |
| <Me> | :) |
| <H> | an applicatant i should say |
| <Me> | i think boinc was most definitely born out of necessity; bless those folks who saw the opportunity and ran with it |
