COMPUTER CLASSROOM:[edit]

To facilitate the education of the Genomic and Life Sciences communities of the University of Illinois campus with HPC services, the IGB operates a computer classroom of 48 computer systems with common software installations for use in courses. In addition, a special queue of Biocluster is available, free of charge, for the classroom.

The classroom is currently equipped with 2 separate projectors that can be used to present two different computers. The room is also set up for recording so that you get audio, right projector output and camera. The room can also be used for Zoom.

Classroom - How It Works:[edit]

The computers in the classroom boot off of an image stored on a server running a software packaged called ccboot. When the image is updated and the computers are booted back up all systems get the updated image making it easy to keep consistent software installs on all the classroom computers. Any data that is left on the systems will typically disappear on restart of the system as it pulls the image from the server and starts back from the baseline.
