Credential Caching

Description

Occasionally some users' credentials are getting cached on Beartooth that prevents them from logging in.

Solution

8/11/21: Intel MPI 2018.x.y and Earlier Libraries and Related Applications Failing

Description

Since the last maintenance where Slurm has been updated we have noticed a backward incompatibility issue when using with the Intel MPI libraries. Any application that uses the intel-mpi 2018.x.y and earlier libraries will fail to run.

For example, if you have a local version of say VASP that has been built and uses module load intel-mpi.x.y

Solution

To resolve the issue, insert the following after the srun command within your command-line / submission script: srun --mpi=pmi2

You do not have to recompile your software nor application.
