How to ... Keep Up to Date

You'll need to keep abreast of new software installations, configuration changes, etc. Major news announcements are posted on the HPC Users web page. Also check the Status and Statistics page where you will find an archive of all Announcements.

Each time you log into a NERSC machine, you are presented with the Message of the Day (motd). Be sure to scan those messages for important announcements. If you miss the motd at login time, you can read it any time with the command cat /etc/motd.

NERSC Users Group

The NERSC Users Group (NUG) holds monthly teleconferences to discuss NERSC services and future developments. Join the NUG mailing list for information about the schedule and agenda.
