Is this an IBM run event?
No. The Spectrum Scale user group is not part of IBM, we are a community of users, ISVs, VARs and have a number of IBM staff as members of the group. To enable us to bring developers from IBM to speak, we work closely with IBM to run user group events and are very grateful for their support.
I have an idea for a talk, how can I get a slot?
Contact Kristy Kallback-Rose or Bob Oesterlin, co-principal by email: usa-principal@gpfsug.org or usa-co-principal@gpfsug.org
How do I join the group?
The group is free to join, please visit www.spectrumscale.org/join for details of the group and how to join the mailing list.
There are no tickets left, can I still attend?
We are limited to 125 people by the space available. We will be running a wait-list, however if you do not have a ticket by event day, we are unlikely to be able to accommodate you.
I can no longer attend, what should I do?
Contact Kristy Kallback-Rose or Bob Oesterlin, co-principal by email: usa-principal@gpfsug.org or usa-co-principal@gpfsug.org
We will then be able to offer your ticket to another member.

Spectrum Scale Request for Enhancements Voting
2018-10-10 16:00 - 17:00 (Europe/London) | Online
GPFS/Spectrum Scale Users,
Here’s a long-ish note about our plans to try and improve the RFE process. We’ve tried to include a tl;dr version if you just read the headers. You’ll find the details underneath 😉 and reading to the end is ideal.
IMPROVING THE RFE PROCESS
As you’ve heard on the list, and at some of the in-person User Group events, we’ve been talking about ways we can improve the RFE process. We’d like to begin having an RFE forum, and have it be de-coupled from the in-person events because we know not everyone can travel.
LIGHTNING PRESENTATIONS ON-LINE
In general terms, we’d have regular on-line events, where RFEs could be very briefly (5 minutes, lightning talk) presented by the requester. There would then be time for brief follow-on discussion and questions. The session would be recorded to deal with large time zone differences.
FOLLOW UP POLL
A poll, independent of current RFE voting, would be conducted a couple days after the recording was available to gather votes and feedback on the RFEs submitted —we may collect site name, to see how many votes are coming from a certain site.
MAY NOT GET IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME
We view this supplemental RFE process as organic, that is, we’ll learn as we go and make modifications. The overall goal here is to highlight the RFEs that matter the most to the largest number of UG members by providing a venue for people to speak about their RFEs and collect feedback from fellow community members.
RFE PRESENTERS WANTED, SUBMISSION DEADLINE OCTOBER 1ST
We’d like to guide a small handful of RFE submitters through this process the first time around, so if you’re interested in being a presenter, let us know now. We’re planning on doing the online meeting and poll for the first time in mid-October, so the submission deadline for your RFE is October 1st. If it’s useful, when you’re drafting your RFE feel free to use the list as a sounding board for feedback. Often sites have similar needs and you may find someone to collaborate with on your RFE to make it useful to more sites, and thereby get more votes. Some guidelines are here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1o8nN39DTU32qj_EFia5wRhnvfvNfr3cI/view?usp=sharing
You can submit by emailing your submission to rfe@spectrumscaleug.org
PARTICIPANTS (AKA YOU!!), VIEW AND VOTE
We are seeking very good participation in the RFE on-line events needed to make this an effective method of Spectrum Scale Community and IBM Developer collaboration. It is to your benefit to participate and help set priorities on Spectrum Scale enhancements!! We want to make this process light lifting for you as a participant. We will limit the duration of the meeting to 1 hour to minimise the use of your valuable time. Please register for the event and voting using the Eventbrite link and we’ll send you details of the online meeting nearer the time.

GPFS/SS UG Event at ORNL,Register by September 1
2018-09-19
Registration link, you can register just for GPFS/SS day at $0:

https://www.eventbrite.com/e/hpcxxl-2018-summer-meeting-registration-47111539884

IMPORTANT: September 1st is the deadline to register for HPCXXL and the GPFS Day. Registration closes earlier than normal. This is due to the background check required to attend the event on site at ORNL. The access review process takes at least 3 weeks to complete for foreign nationals and 1 week to complete for US Citizens. So don’t wait too long to make your travel decisions.About HPCXXL:HPCXXL is a user group for sites which have large supercomputing and storage installations. Because of the history of HPCXXL, the focus of the group is on large-scale scientific/technical computing using IBM or Lenovo hardware and software, but other vendor hardware and software is also welcome. Some of the areas we cover are: Applications, Code Development Tools, Communications, Networking, Parallel I/O, Resource Management, System Administration, and Training. We address topics across a wide range of issues that are important to sustained petascale scientific/technical computing on scaleable parallel machines. Some of the benefits of joining the group include knowledge sharing across members, NDA content availability from vendors, and access to vendor developers and support staff.The HPCXXL user group is a self-organized and self-supporting group. Members and affiliates are expected to participate actively in the HPCXXL meetings and activities and to cover their own costs for participating. HPCXXL meetings are open only to members and affiliates of the HPCXXL. HPCXXL member institutions must have an appropriate non-disclosure agreement in place with IBM and Lenovo, since at times both vendors disclose and discuss information of a confidential nature with the group.
