EnginFrame Web portal

CCME embeds an easy-to-use web interface with EnginFrame. The URL to reach the web portal is https://ALB_URL/CLUSTERNAME/portal, with:

  • ALB_URL: the DNS name of the ALB or CCME_DNS if you specify it

  • CLUSTERNAME: the name of the ParallelCluster cluster you launched

Features

  • Set EnginFrame logo with the CCME/custom/logo.png file.

  • Load EnginFrame services from the CCME/pkgs/efservices-slurm.tgz.

  • All shared file systems (e.g., FSx for Lustre/NetApp ONTAP…) are displayed in the Files view.

  • All users belonging to the CCME_EF_ADMIN_GROUP OS group are automatically added as administrators of EnginFrame. Group membership is updated every minute, so if a user is added to/removed from the CCME_EF_ADMIN_GROUP group, please wait 1 minute to see the update.

  • Support for aarch64 architectures.

  • Various fixes to allow EnginFrame to work properly in a Cloud environment and with users in an Active Directory.
