HANB Installation Tutorial with Terraform for HPC Cluster
From H4KS
== HANB Installation Tutorial with Terraform for HPC Cluster ==
=== Prerequisites ===
* Ensure you have the following installed:
** [https://www.terraform.io/downloads.html Terraform]
** [https://www.ansible.com/ Ansible] (optional for configuration management)
* Access to a cloud provider (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP) with appropriate permissions.
* Basic knowledge of Terraform and HPC concepts.
=== Step 1: Set Up Your Terraform Environment ===
1. Create a new directory for your Terraform configuration:
<code>mkdir hanb-hpc-cluster</code>
<code>cd hanb-hpc-cluster</code>
2. Create a new Terraform configuration file:
<code>touch main.tf</code>
=== Step 2: Define Your Provider ===
In your <code>main.tf</code> file, define the provider you will be using. For example, for AWS:
<code>
provider "aws" {
region = "us-west-2"
}
</code>
=== Step 3: Define Your HPC Cluster Resources ===
Add the resources for your HPC cluster. Here’s an example configuration:
<code>
resource "aws_instance" "hpc_node" {
count = 5
ami = "ami-0c55b159cbfafe1f0" # Replace with your desired AMI
instance_type = "c5.large"
tags = {
Name = "HPC-Node-${count.index}"
}
}
</code>
=== Step 4: Configure HANB ===
Add the configuration for HANB. This may include setting up storage and networking:
<code>
resource "aws_ebs_volume" "hanb_storage" {
count = 5
size = 100 # Size in GB
availability_zone = aws_instance.hpc_node[count.index].availability_zone
}
resource "aws_volume_attachment" "hanb_attachment" {
count = 5
device = "/dev/sdh"
volume_id = aws_ebs_volume.hanb_storage[count.index].id
instance_id = aws_instance.hpc_node[count.index].id
}
</code>
=== Step 5: Initialize and Apply Your Configuration ===
1. Initialize Terraform:
<code>terraform init</code>
2. Validate your configuration:
<code>terraform validate</code>
3. Apply your configuration:
<code>terraform apply</code>
Confirm the action by typing <code>yes</code> when prompted.
=== Step 6: Verify Your Installation ===
* After the apply process completes, verify that your HPC cluster is running and that HANB is properly configured.
* You can SSH into your instances to check the status:
<code>ssh -i your-key.pem ec2-user@your-instance-ip</code>
=== Conclusion ===
You have successfully installed HANB on an HPC cluster using Terraform. For further customization and scaling, refer to the Terraform documentation and your cloud provider's resources.
