====== Practical: High-Performance Computing System Administration ======
High-Performance Computing System Administration is essential for managing HPC resources
not only as a user but as a cluster administrator. As part of this practical course,
you receive an introduction into the basics of Linux and using HPC resources in two sessions.
At the end of these sessions you will be assigned a topic in terms of a
tool related to HPC system administration. You will test out and evaluate the tool.
After the end of the term, a one-week block course will take place that goes more in depth
on HPC system administration. At the end of the semester, you will hand in a report
describing your evaluation of the topic you were assigned to.
