HiPerGator OS Upgrade: RHEL-7 → RHEL-8
HiPerGator has gone through a rolling upgrade process from Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 7 (RHEL-7) to version 8 (RHEL-8). The upgraded software environment includes updates to important components including, but not limited to, NVIDIA GPU drivers, CUDA (12.2), communication libraries, compilers (gcc/12 and intel/2023), and OpenMPI (4.1.5).
Some programs/workflows run in the updated software environment without any modification, and some require recompilation or adaptation.
