17th of July

The cluster is crunching away on Einstein BRP4 work. The cluster is up to 3.9M credits (for Einstein) and is averaging 8,500 credits a day.



I moved one of the larger computers around on the shelving units which freed up a shelf. This meant I could move the Pi^4 case off the floor and another one off a cardboard box and put both into the shelving unit.

Its quite a nuisance moving them around because I have to reroute the power and network cabling. There is no room to get around the back and limited space on the sides which makes it all more difficult.

Unfortunately I have to white-out the labels for security reasons.


That’s the two support nodes at the front sitting on top of a PiDrive each. There is a Pi^4 case in the middle with 4 compute nodes in it and another one at the back. The white square shaped thing between the Pi^4 cases is one of the USB chargers and there is another one at the back.

I am not happy with the power cabling into the USB chargers. I may hang them underneath to tidy things up.
