The Mill High Performance Computing cluster is a shared cluster located in Rolla, Missouri accessible to researchers and their collaborators at the Missouri University of Science and Technology and across the University of Missouri System. The Mill, managed by IT Research Support Services (RSS), currently runs Alma 8.10 and uses SLURM to schedule jobs.
This cluster currently consists of 229 compute nodes; 25 with 512GB of DDR4 RAM, a single 1.6Tb NVME drive for local scratch and 128 cores; and 160 with 256GB of DDR4 RAM, a single 2.6TB NVME drive for local scratch and 64 cores; 44 with 192GB of DDR4 RAM, 2.6TB of local scratch and 40 cores, totaling 15,200 compute cores across the system. There are 8 GPU nodes; 6 with 4 Nvidia V100 GPUs; 1 with 8 H100 GPUs; 1 with 2 V100s, totaling 34 GPUs.
The network is based on an HDR backbone which provides up to 200 gigabits of data point-to-point on the network. Each node is attached to the backbone with an HDR-100 InfiniBand connection capable of providing 100 gigabits of data throughput per second to each node.
The Mill is connected to 250Tb of high-performance all-flash InfiniBand storage (VAST) as well as 800Tb of utility CEPH storage. Storage lab allocations are protected by associated security groups applied to the share, with the ability for the PI to manage group access.
