AWS ParallelCluster 3.12 is now generally available. This release makes it possible to include Lustre and NVIDIA software components in ParallelCluster custom images. Now, you can include ParallelCluster’s recommended Nvidia drivers and CUDA libraries in custom images. This update also makes the Lustre client optional to account for scenarios where you may opt for alternative storage solutions. To enable these optional software components when creating custom images, configure the NvidiaSoftware and the LustreClient parameters in the build image configuration file when using the build-image command.
For more details on the release, review the AWS ParallelCluster 3.12.0 release notes.
