Intro to Bash Scripting (HPC Training Series #2)

April 10, 2025
2:00 PM - 3:30 PM
America/New_York
Online Event

The CUIT Research Services HPC Training Series is designed to onboard researchers to shared high-performance computing (HPC) resources at Columbia. Led by HPC engineers, these hands-on sessions will introduce participants to Columbia’s shared on-prem HPC clusters, (Insomnia, Manitou, and Ginsburg) and provide foundational skills for effectively leveraging these resources. Whether you're new to HPC or looking to refine your skills, this series will guide you through essential tools and workflows for running computational research efficiently.

These workshops are designed to help new users get started with HPC resources and build foundational skills for their research computing needs. You can take one or all of the courses, depending on your needs.

Intro to Bash Scripting (Training Series #2)

In this workshop, we'll be covering the fundamentals of Bash, a powerful command-line tool used for automating tasks and managing systems in Linux environments. We'll explore why Bash is crucial in high-performance computing (HPC) for automating job submissions and managing resources efficiently. Topics will include basic Bash syntax, variables, control structures, and functions, as well as how to use Bash in conjunction with SLURM for job scheduling and management.
