Jean Zay WORKSHOP
Managers: Martin COMMINGES, Isabelle DUPAYS, Laurent LEGER
Instructors: IDRIS engineers selected in accordance with the chosen files.
IDRIS organises two sessions per year over two days aimed at helping:
- new users of the machine to understand the computing environment (disk spaces, data management, SLURM submissions, monitoring of hour usage, best practices, ...)
- with the porting and/or optimisation of codes on the Jean Zay machine.
The programme for this working session includes presentations at the beginning of the session (first half-day) on:
- Jean Zay: the supercomputer
- Jean Zay: the HPC side
- Jean Zay: the AI side
The rest of the time will be devoted to working in small teams on codes and/or setting up work procedures. Participants will be supervised by members of the IDRIS User Support team (2 SU members per project).

Target audience
This session is aimed at all machine users, from beginners wishing to quickly start working on Jean Zay to more experienced ones wanting to optimise their applications.
Prerequisites
It is necessary to have an account on Jean Zay or a pending account opening request on Jean Zay to attend the session.
💡 Note that a request to open an account on the machine can take up to 8 weeks to be processed. It is therefore necessary to plan ahead.
Duration and practical info
Each session lasts 2 days.
The second day is dedicated to continuing the work (porting and optimization, ...) started on the first day. It is therefore optional (at the user's discretion) depending on the work done on the first day.
It takes place exclusively in-person at the premises ofIDRIS in Orsay (91).
Bring a valid identity document to enter IDRIS.
The number of projects supported during a session is limited to 5: each project is supervised by two user support engineers.
Multiple people can register for the same project.
