     • #200816: Request by AMD ROCm 9 for OpenPOWER HUB access through Oregon State University Open Source Lab
       • Built new kernel with amdgpu patch plus using 4K pages
         • "Linux kernel people looked at the sos report I collected for them, they indicate there is a mismatch between the write_buffer (passed by userspace) and amdgpu VM va mapping in driver, which caused ioctl to fail. they suspect this may be due to mismatch between kernel pagesize and AMD gpu page size assumption. one way to confirm this is to build ppc64le kernel with 4K page config and try." - IBM Engineer
         • rocminfo ran successfully after this change
   • Resolved/Closed

2. Other Items

   • OSUOSL UPS Hardware issue
     • One of the two UPS systems is in bypass mode until a part is received and can be replaced
     • We have powered down all unused (6) OPH systems to ensure the other UPS has capacity.
     • We have more than enough capacity for our current requests but can power on another node if we need
     • No ETA on when this will be fixed
   • P10 dedicated for OPF HUB
