Chispa user guide

This guide is for researchers using chispa, IAFE's shared GPU computing server. It covers connecting to the server and running your own work on it. If you provision or maintain the server itself, see the separate admin documentation instead.

You need an account before you can connect — see Request an account.

Read the pages below in order if you're new to the server:

1. Request an account
2. Connect to chispa over SSH
3. Submit and monitor SLURM jobs
4. Run containers with Pyxis
5. Build your own container image with Enroot
