  1. HPC Cluster Build Workshop

Jetson Nano Initial Setup

We will use Jetson Nano Developer Kits for this workshop. SD cards will be provided, with the Jetson Nano developer kit SD card image already flashed.

Physical Setup (all nodes)

We will be using external power supplies which connect to the barrel jack connector. The Jetson Nano Developer Kit needs to have a jumper placed on J48 to support use of the barrel jack. For a five node cluster (1 master + 4 compute nodes), the master node should have its own power supply and the four compute nodes can share a power supply with a 4-way barrel jack splitter.

Master Node

For the master node, we will use a USB-ethernet adapter for connectivity to the campus network. The onboard ethernet connection will be used for the private network.

An HDMI monitor, USB keyboard and mouse can also be connected to the master node.

Compute Nodes

Compute nodes will be connected to the private network only using the onboard ethernet connection.
