 ontents:\nHere\, we are offering a 3-day workshop\, composed of 3 full-day
  sessions\, with the primary goal of introducing participants to the daily
  tasks of HPC system administrators through realistic scenarios using indu
 stry-standard tools and technologies. This practical training is intended 
 for junior system administrators\, technical staff\, or Linux users transi
 tioning into HPC environments. The program blends foundational system admi
 nistration concepts with hands-on HPC-specific practices.\n\nDay 1 focuses
  on system administration: user and group management\, permissions\, files
 ystems\, package and service management\, and firewalls.\nDay 2 introduces
  HPC cluster-specific operations\, with an in-depth look at the Slurm work
 load manager\, and modern container technologies like Docker and Singulari
 ty.\nDay 3 covers automation (Ansible)\, monitoring (Prometheus\, Grafana)
 \, and software stack management (EasyBuild\, EESSI\, and Spack).\n\nThis 
 workshop offers a comprehensive\, practical introduction to HPC system adm
 inistration\, empowering junior and aspiring administrators to confidently
  support and grow HPC infrastructures.\n\nLearning goals:\n\nBy the end of
  this workshop\, you will be able to:\n\nApply core Linux system administr
 ation skills in an HPC context\nManage shared filesystems\, users\, servic
 es\, and packages\nSet up and administer Slurm workload manager from a sys
 tem perspective\nDeploy and support scientific applications in containers\
 nAutomate configuration using Ansible\nMonitor and troubleshoot cluster he
 alth with Prometheus and Grafana\nBuild and manage HPC software environmen
 ts with EasyBuild and EESSI\nPrerequisites:\n\nThe lessons require you to 
 have access to a terminal application with ssh capabilities. If it is uncl
 ear what this requirement means\, please click here for guidance on how to
  make this available for your operating system\nThere is no need for progr
 amming or informatics skills but a prior knowledge of file systems and the
  Unix shell is required. If you wish to participate but do not meet these 
 prerequisites\, we recommend watching the video recording from our previou
 s workshop\, available in the BioNT Lhumos space here.\nPC/Laptop with an
