Using GPUs for remote hardware acceleration
The goal is to enable HPC users to use hardware acceleration on GPU equipped compute nodes in an interactive environment.
TurboVNC + VirtualGL
- TurboVNC functions as a high-speed virtual X server
- VirtualGL adds hardware-accelerated OpenGL to TurboVNC
Example Setup (from an xcat postscript, modify to your needs)
yum install -y xorg-x11-server-Xorg
# INSTALL DRIVERS FROM BINARY (current centos 7.7 nvidia rpms do not run well with GTX2080Ti cards)
NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-440.59.run -q --ui=none --install-libglvnd
# Configure X for VirtualGL
nvidia-xconfig -a --allow-empty-initial-configuration --virtual=1920x1200
# Unload nvidia drivers
modprobe -r nvidia_drm
modprobe -r nvidia_uvm
# Install VirtualGL
yum install -y VirtualGL-2.6.3.x86_64.rpm
# Configure VirtualGL (with these flags very unsecure!)
/opt/VirtualGL/bin/vglserver_config -config +s +f +t
# Load back nvidia drivers
modprobe nvidia_drm
modprobe nvidia_uvm
# Enabling Persistence Mode
nvidia-smi -pm 1
# Für constant clock frequencies
nvidia-smi -acp UNRESTRICTED
# Start an X server to handle 3D OpenGL rendering
nohup Xorg :0 > /root/xorg.0.log &
# Install WM, menubar, filemanager, terminal
yum install -y openbox
yum install -y tint2
yum install -y caja adwaita-gtk2-theme mate-terminal caja-open-terminal
# get custom config files
cp /Applic.HPC/visualisierung/vis-gpu/openbox/menu.xml /etc/xdg/openbox/menu.xml
cp /Applic.HPC/visualisierung/vis-gpu/openbox/rc.xml /etc/xdg/openbox/rc.xml
cp /Applic.HPC/visualisierung/vis-gpu/openbox/open_scratch.py /etc/xdg/openbox/open_scratch.py
cp /Applic.HPC/visualisierung/vis-gpu/tint2rc /etc/xdg/tint2/tint2rc
Desktop Environment
Try to keep the overall installed software for a functioning Desktop environment as minimal as possible. We went with a combination of:
- Openbox Window Manager
- tint2 menubar
and customized those for our needs. Copy customized config files to the nodes on startup:
- Tint2:

SLURM Integration
We added a module vis-gpu which gives access to a vnc_gpu.sh script. The script automatially reserves one of the dedicated GPU nodes with a fixed amount of CPUs, one GPU and a limited time of 12h. It then starts the turbovnc server and prints instructions to the terminal on how to create an ssh tunnel and conntect to the VNC server.
