We discussed obtaining an interactive node on Stampede's KNL partition. I believe this simfactory configuration entry should do the trick:
interactivecmd = srun -A @ALLOCATION@ -p @QUEUE@ -t @WALLTIME@ -N @NODES@ -n @NUM_PROCS@ -J interactive --pty /bin/bash -l
You could add this line into the file "simfactory-knl.ini", probably just below the line that contains the "submit" entry. When you then type "./simfactory/bin/sim interactive", you will receive a bash shell running on a KNL node.

Present were: Bhavesh, Erik, Frank, Ian, Peter, and Vassili.
It was noted that the link in the reminders email does not work anymore, and that the link to the hangout session should ideally be on a wiki page. So, next week's reminder will contain a link to that wiki page instead.
Again, KNLs came up as topic, and Frank pushed his scripts for compiling on Stampede-KNLs (on a compute node), but this is still experimental. Also, Ian created a new wiki page containing machine-specific notes (including KNLs): https://docs.einsteintoolkit.org/et-docs/Machines
