 DRII has made it clear the mission of Hellbender is to accelerate Mizzou Forward initiatives. There are 2 access levels made available for UM researchers, general and priority access. General access is free and available to all UM researchers. General access provides an equal share of at least 50% of the resources available to all users. Priority access provides dedicated access to some number of nodes on Hellbender and is available through investment.  DRII has made it clear the mission of Hellbender is to accelerate Mizzou Forward initiatives.

-Requesting access to Hellbender can be done through our [[https://request.itrss.umsystem.edu|request form]]. Each form entry will need a faculty sponsor listed as the principal investigator for the group (PI) to be the primary contact for the request. The PI will be the responsible party for managing members  The form entry can also request access to our [[pub:rde:start|Research Data Ecosystem]] (RDE) at the same time as an HPC request or the RDE request can be made separately later if you find a need for it.+Requesting access to Hellbender can be done through our [[https://tdx.umsystem.edu/TDClient/36/DoIT/Requests/ServiceOfferingDet?ID=1041| Hellbender account request form]]. Each prospective user will need a faculty sponsor listed as the principal investigator(PI)/sponsor. The PI/sponsor will be the responsible party for managing members who have access to the Hellbender cluster. To request a 5TB storage group each PI/sponsor can submit the following form:[[https://tdx.umsystem.edu/TDClient/36/DoIT/Requests/ServiceOfferingDet?ID=1043| group storage request form]] to request access to our [[pub:rde:start|Research Data Ecosystem]] (RDE).

 +====The Mill====
 +
 +The Mill is a traditional HPC research cluster built at S&T in 2023. The Mill 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 also 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.

 +Priority access to dedicated hardware can be made through investment in hardware.

 +We ask that when you cite any of the RSS clusters in a publication to send an email to itrss-support@umsystem.edu as well as share a copy of the publication with us. To cite the use of The Mill in a publication please use: "The computation for this work was performed on the high-performance computing infrastructure provided by Research Support Solutions at Missouri University of Science and Technology https://doi.org/10.71674/PH64-N397".
