+Minutes of meeting:
+-------------------
+
+Update on machine availability
+******************************
+ - Atos/KNL available, energy software stack not ready yet
+ - E4/GPU should be available by mid September. No news since beginning of September.
+ - Maxeler/FPGA, A mistake in the last update: the machine should be available by mid
+   October NOT mid-September. This compromise a lot running on this machine and confirm
+   that we should focus on the two others
+
+Login procedures
+****************
+ - Atos/KNL: WIP, almost all BCOs send their applications and account are oppened. (about 48h delay)
+ - E4/GPU: I'm waiting for the inputs of Carlo Cavazzoni.
+ - Maxeler/FPGA: BCOs will have to register on an online procedure and then send the
+   public part of an ssh-key to Dirk Pleiter
+
+
+Basics for energy mesurement on BULL/Atos KNL machine
+*****************************************************
+
+There is 2 kind of energy metrics that can be collected on the Atos machine.
+
+1. Bull Energy Optimiser, is an admin oriented tools that allow to get energy metrics at switch and node
+   level. This tool won't be operated by final users and metrics will be available through a
+   wrapper not defined yet (slurm accounting, or terminal command). Will give a an overview metric of a job.
+
+2. HDEEVIZ framework: allow metrics at a finer level ie DRAM, CPU and IO. to use it we'll just have a load
+   a module corresponding to the mpilibrairie used to compile and add a command at the begining of the mpirun
+   line. Then access to the metrics will be done through a Graphana web interface.
+
+Figures that will be included in the final deliverable (performances & energy related)
+**************************************************************************************
+
+ - Performances in regards of the peakperformance allocated to the run. ie theorical FLOPS for the allocated
+   numbers of GPU and or CPUs
+ - overall Power consumed by each testcases at high level ie at node and swith level. This is the best metric
+   we can imagine to have in common on all the clusters.

+Update on machine availability
+******************************
+
+ - E4/GPU Rack are physicaly inside CINECA, openning is planned around 13 October
+ - No change for now for FPGA cluster - available mid October
+
+Login procedures
+****************
+

+   him in person next week
+
+
+Basics for energy mesurement on BULL/Atos KNL machine
+*****************************************************
+
+Update for BEO, that is now available.
+ - Generate an rsa key and send the public part to svp@cines.fr.
+ - You will be able to call BEO through SSH and get basic job energy reports.
+ - Please consult a more detailed documentation on the machine itself:
+   ``/opt/software/frioul/documentation/beo_usage.txt``
+ - You will also find complete user guides for HDEEVIZ (vizualisation part not available yet) and
+   BEO in the same directory
+
+
+Figures that will be included in the final deliverable (performances & energy related)
+**************************************************************************************
+
+ - it could be interesting, if possible and meaningfull, to run the same simulation on
+   different set of nodes to get some kind of scalability on power figures.
