Abstract
If you build it, will they come? Not necessarily. A critical need
exists for knowledge in managing and properly utilizing
supercomputing at mid-level and smaller research institutions.
Simply having HPC hardware and some software is not enough.
This paper relates the administrative experience of the first
several months of a mid-level doctoral university providing a new
enterprise XSEDE [15] Compatible Basic Cluster (XCBC) [3,4,5]
high performance computing cluster to faculty and other
researchers, including the experiences of first-day urgencies,
initial problems in the first few weeks, and establishing an
ongoing management system.
