NXV nodes¶
We have 36 infiniband-connected NeXtScale nodes on Apocrita for general use, plus several additional nodes purchased due to contributions from researchers.
| NXV | |

Restricted nodes¶
If you are part of a group with access to a restricted node, the scheduler will attempt to run jobs on those nodes first.
Using infiniband¶
A low latency infiniband interconnect is provided for parallel jobs running over multiple nodes simultaneously using MPI.
