HPCBIOS is a package that provides a set of tools for managing BIOS settings on HPC systems. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the steps to install HPCBIOS on OpenSUSE Latest.
Before starting, you should have:
The first step is to install the required packages for compiling HPCBIOS. Open a terminal and run the following command:
sudo zypper install gcc make git sudo -y
This command will install the necessary packages for building HPCBIOS.
Next, we need to clone the HPCBIOS repository. Open a terminal and enter the following command:
sudo git clone https://github.com/NERSC/hpcbios.git /opt/hpcbios
This command will clone the HPCBIOS repository into the /opt/hpcbios directory.
We are now ready to build and install HPCBIOS. Open a terminal and navigate to the /opt/hpcbios directory using the following command:
cd /opt/hpcbios
Next, run the following command to build HPCBIOS:
sudo make
This command will build the HPCBIOS package. Once the build is complete, install HPCBIOS by running the following command:
sudo make install
This command will install HPCBIOS on your system.
To verify the installation of HPCBIOS, run the following command:
hpcbios -h
This command should display help information for the HPCBIOS tool.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed HPCBIOS on your OpenSUSE Latest system. You can now use the HPCBIOS tools to manage BIOS settings on your HPC system.
