compute nodes
The HLRS SX-9 installation consists of 8 nodes SX-9 with
- 16 CPUs each node
- 512GB memory per node
The CPUs main features are
- 8 pipesets (SX-8 had 4)
- 3.2 Ghz clock
- 2 add and 2 multiply per pipeset (SX-8 had 2)
- 102.4 gflops peak performance
- 256 GB/sec memory bandwidth per CPU
The 8 nodes are interconnected using an IXS switch, each node has a peak transfer performance of 32GB/s both directions.
The nodes connect to the filesystems with 4x2gbit FC channels.
frontends
the frontends which are used as access gateways, for crosscompiling and for interaction with batch system are 2 NEC Express5800 140-rf4, each having 4 2.93 ghz quadcore intel xeon CPUs and 128 GB of RAM.
