| title | How to estimate Service Units request for Setonix-GPU? |
|---|
| Researchers planning their migration from NVIDIA-based GPU systems like Pawsey’s Topaz and NCI’s Gadi to AMD-based Setonix-GPU should use the following example strategy to calculate their Service Units request. - Simulation walltime on a single NVIDIA V100 GPU: 1h
- Safe estimate for Service Units usage on a single Setonix’s AMD MI250X GCD: 1h * 1/2 * 128 = 64 Service Units (note: each AMD MI250X GPU has 2 GCDs for the total of 8 GCDs per node)

| title | Setonix-GPU migration pathway |
|---|
| The Setonix’s AMD MI250X GPUs have a very specific migration pathway related to CUDA to HIP and OpenACC to OpenMP conversions. Pawsey is working closely with research groups within PaCER project (https://pawsey.org.au/pacer/) and with vendors to further extend the list of supported codes.
