SUMMARY:HPC Systems Professionals Workshop (HPCSYSPROS25)
DESCRIPTION:The complexity of high performance computing (HPC) systems nec
 essitates advanced techniques in system administration, configuration, and
  engineering and staff who are well versed on the best practices in this f
 ield. HPC systems professionals include system engineers, system administr
 ators, network administrators, storage administrators, and operations staf
 f who face problems unique to HPC systems. The ACM SIGHPC SYSPROS Virtual 
 Chapter, the sponsor for this workshop, has been established to provide op
 portunities to develop and grow relationships focused specifically on the 
 needs of HPC systems practitioners and to act as a support resource for th
 em to help with the issues encountered in this specialized field. This wor
 kshop is designed to share best practices for common HPC system deployment
  and maintenance, to provide a platform to discuss upcoming technologies, 
 and to present the state-of-the-practice techniques that increase performa
 nce and reliability of systems, and in turn increase researcher and analys
 t productivity.\n\nMorning Break - HPC Systems Professionals Workshop (HPC
 SYSPROS25)\n---------------------\nA Simple Method for Container-Based Sof
 tware Management\n\nHPC administrators and staff scientists are often resp
 onsible for installing and managing scientific software for users—a task c
 omplicated by complex dependencies, non-privileged environments, and the n
 eed for relocatable installations. Containers simplify this process, and m
 any labs now distr...\n\n\nDavid Godlove (CIQ)\n---------------------\nHPC

 ----\nProvisioning to Disk with Warewulf v4\n\nWarewulf v4, the current ge
 neration of the popular cluster provisioning system, was significnatly sim
 pler than its predecessor by supporting only a single-stage, provision-to-
 memory pattern. While this simplification has many benefits, users of the 
 platform, particularly those coming from Warewulf 3...\n\n\nJonathon Ander
 son (CIQ)\n---------------------\nExploring bootc for HPC Cluster Manageme
 nt: A Container-Based Approach to Operating System Deployment\n\nManaging 
 operating system deployments across HPC clusters remains challenging. This
  presentation examines bootc, a technology that packages operating systems
  as OCI containers to simplify cluster management. We'll explore how bootc
  enables atomic OS updates, rollbacks, and version control similar to...\n
 \n\nJason Kincl and Cory Latschkowski (Red Hat)\n---------------------\nCr
 yoSPARC in HPC: A better way\n\nCryoSPARC has historically meshed poorly w
 ith shared compute resources. This presentation demonstrates a way to inte
 grate CryoSPARC into shared compute systems without the need of containers
  or SSH tunnels.\n\n\nKurt Stine and Chris Haley (Stanford University)\n--
 -------------------\nTransparent Global File System Access in Environments
  with Multiple Authentication Domains\n\nGlobal file systems, whose access
  spans multiple systems/sub-systems within a High-Performance Computing (H
 PC) center, are common at many institutions due to a range of benefits the
 y provide. In the vast majority of cases however, they operate under a sin
 gle authentication domain or in more complex ...\n\n\nJ.D. Maloney (Univer
 sity of Illinois Urbana-Champaign) and Sean Stevens (University of Illinoi
 s at Urbana-Champaign)\n---------------------\nPushing the Limits of Cold 
 Storage for Research Data With Elm: An Open-Source S3-to-Tape System\n\nTh
 is presentation introduces Elm, Stanford Research Computing’s latest stora
 ge system designed to handle large-scale archiving of research data, up to
  hundreds of petabytes. With a strong focus on affordability and energy-ef
 ficiency, Elm combines several open-source technologies: MinIO for S3 ...\

 ail RoCE, Now with more BGP!\n\nHeterogeneous compute nodes containing mul
 tiple accelerators and Ethernet network injections have become common in r
 ecent years. Despite this, additional network injections beyond the first 
 are often only utilized by application middleware such as MPI or NCCL supp
 orting an RDMA API. We explain why t...\n\n\nBenjamin Matthews (National S

 -------------------\nNIST SP 800-* in HPC: Standards That Matter\n\nAs HPC
  systems increasingly support sensitive and federally regulated research, 
 frameworks like the NIST Special Publication (SP) 800 series are becoming 
 essential for compliance and data protection. This lightning talk offers a
  fast-paced overview of the NIST SP 800-* family, highlighting key stand..
