Resource centre NIIFI SC
NIIFI supercomputer is a fat-node HP cluster which is a very sophisticated type of blade technology CP4000BL. It is content the latest AMD Opteron 6174 type processors with 12-core Magny-Cours. Total number of cores is 768. It is using Infiniband network for the internal high-performance communication. The machine content 1.9 TByte memory and the computing power is 5.4 Tflops. Water-cooled rack was placed in the system to increases energy efficiency. This unique super computer run it very effectively in the mixed parallel programming paradigms and each node is a powerful 24 cores SMP computer.
Parallel programming models
Supported parallel programming paradigms are MPI, OpenMP, PVM and Hybrid.
Development software
Languages C/C++ ; gcc compiler toolchain, MPI libraries, profiling and debugging tools.
Infrastructural services
User administration, authentication, authorization, security
Users can access it with SSH public key authentication
Workflow and batch management
Sun Grid Engine 6.2u5 local resource manager
Distributed filesystem and data management
There are two filesystems available to users (/home, /scratch) where /scratch is for temporary files created during job execution and it is shared beetween the worker nodes.
Accounting and resource management
Sun Grid Engine's accounting
Operational monitoring
Operational monitoring is performed using various tools: Nagios, Munin
Helpdesk and user support
User support is provided through mailing lists and dedicated hu_niifi queue at HP-SEE Helpdesk
Libraries and application tools
1) Software libraries:
PVM3, FFTW3, Blas, Lapack, MPICH2, OpenMPI
2) Development and application software available:
GDB, GNU compilers (gcc, g++, gfortran)
