Additional compute resources have been added to the rcnib2.q on Circe. 144 additional processors and 2GB of RAM per core, connected by DDR InfiniBand have been brought online in order to run jobs and improve system throughput. We hope to add more resources in the next few months to keep queue times to a minimum and allow for much larger job execution.
The new system specifications are
- 9 Nodes
- HP DL165 G7 1U chassis
- Dual 8-Core AMD Opteron 6128 CPUs
- 32GB of DDR3 Memory
- Mellanox ConnectX 4x DDR InfiniBand adapter
We’ve also added a single large-memory system in smp.q for fine-grained, memory-intensive calculations
