Dear EasyBuilders, On Monday 4 December 2023 (13:30-17:00 CET) we are organising a half-day online introductory tutorial on CernVM-FS (https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Furldefense.com%2Fv3%2F__https%3A%2F%2Fcernvm.cern.ch%2Ffs__%3B!!GNU8KkXDZlD12Q!_OiV9to_-4ebtgmF9Ijqtq_GsttJhUyb0U9Zpoj9zgYed751Va0qyEcs0MOO52zPJfqU0L37yzsL5rR3DAv1tMc%24&data=05%7C01%7Cphineas%40ou.edu%7Ca53364a4baac4f8c20b408dbe41f40c9%7C9c7de09d903444c1b462c464fece204a%7C1%7C0%7C638354595303986278%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=nzlf8FT9JSVEvmCd3oQVICchtrW0NoeGmoZNJ3AKRmo%3D&reserved=0 [cernvm[.]cern[.]ch]), via Zoom, in collaboration with the CernVM-FS development team. CernVM-FS, the CernVM File System (also known as CVMFS), is a file distribution service that is particularly well suited to distribute software installations across a large number of systems world-wide in an efficient way. The focus of this tutorial is on explaining what CernVM-FS is, how to access existing CernVM-FS repositories (like EESSI, see https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Furldefense.com%2Fv3%2F__https%3A%2F%2Feessi.io%2Fdocs__%3B!!GNU8KkXDZlD12Q!_OiV9to_-4ebtgmF9Ijqtq_GsttJhUyb0U9Zpoj9zgYed751Va0qyEcs0MOO52zPJfqU0L37yzsL5rR3jj9nKww%24&data=05%7C01%7Cphineas%40ou.edu%7Ca53364a4baac4f8c20b408dbe41f40c9%7C9c7de09d903444c1b462c464fece204a%7C1%7C0%7C638354595303986278%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=GsGiXctdqbvA5aKErDwVG5Z82JOFvx7JpNML%2BEtEmRI%3D&reserved=0<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://eessi.io/docs__;!!GNU8KkXDZlD12Q!_OiV9to_-4ebtgmF9Ijqtq_GsttJhUyb0U9Zpoj9zgYed751Va0qyEcs0MOO52zPJfqU0L37yzsL5rR3jj9nKww$> [eessi[.]io]), and covering some aspects specific to using CernVM-FS on HPC systems. It is intended for people with a background in HPC (system administrators, support team members, end users, etc.) who are new to CernVM-FS: no specific prior knowledge or experience with it is required. High-level preliminary agenda (subject to minor changes): - What is CernVM-FS? - European Environment for Scientific Software Installations (EESSI) - Accessing a CernVM-FS repository - Configuring CernVM-FS on HPC infrastructure - Troubleshooting and debugging CernVM-FS - Performance aspects of CernVM-FS - Different storage backends for CernVM-FS - Containers and CernVM-FS - Getting started with CernVM-FS (from scratch) If you would like to attend this tutorial, please register via: https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Furldefense.com%2Fv3%2F__https%3A%2F%2Fevent.ugent.be%2Fregistration%2Fcvmfshpc202312__%3B!!GNU8KkXDZlD12Q!_OiV9to_-4ebtgmF9Ijqtq_GsttJhUyb0U9Zpoj9zgYed751Va0qyEcs0MOO52zPJfqU0L37yzsL5rR354KX4g0%24&data=05%7C01%7Cphineas%40ou.edu%7Ca53364a4baac4f8c20b408dbe41f40c9%7C9c7de09d903444c1b462c464fece204a%7C1%7C0%7C638354595303986278%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=ZsCdbnslSkQ8VYiT6L5GVtrkX375MHu8C7cRzhF2xbk%3D&reserved=0<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://event.ugent.be/registration/cvmfshpc202312__;!!GNU8KkXDZlD12Q!_OiV9to_-4ebtgmF9Ijqtq_GsttJhUyb0U9Zpoj9zgYed751Va0qyEcs0MOO52zPJfqU0L37yzsL5rR354KX4g0$> [event[.]ugent[.]be] Please help us promote this event, by sharing it with colleagues and friends, and/or posting this event announcement on appropriate channels. regards, Kenneth on behalf of the tutorial organisers
