This Page is under construction!


The information below applies to the Test and Development System (TDS) which is similar to the future Hawk production system. Please have in mind that this is a system under construction. Hence modifications might occur ''without'' announcement and stuff may not work as expected from time to time!

=== Interconnect ===
Hawk deploys an Infiniband HDR based interconnect with a 9-dimensional enhanced hypercube topology. Please refer to [https://kb.hlrs.de/platforms/upload/Interconnect_topology.pdf here] with respect to the latter. Infiniband HDR has a bandwidth of 200 Gbit/s and a MPI latency of ~1.3us per link. The full bandwidth of 200 Gbit/s can be used if communicating between the 16 nodes connected to the same node of the hypercube (cf. [https://kb.hlrs.de/platforms/upload/Interconnect_topology.pdf here]). Within the hypercube, the higher the dimension, the less bandwidth is available.
Topology aware scheduling is used to exclude major performance fluctuations. This means that larger jobs can only be requested with defined node numbers (64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048 and 4096) in regular operation. This restriction ensures optimal system utilization while simultaneously exploiting the network topology. Jobs with a node number of < 128 nodes are processed in a special partition. Jobs over 4096 nodes are processed at special times.
