SDV nodes¶
We have 12 Lenovo ThinkSystem SD530 infiniband-connected nodes with Skylake CPUs. These nodes are not available for general use, because they have been purchased with contributions by researchers.
| SDV | |
|---|---|
| Count | 12 |
| Processor | 2 x 12 Core Intel Xeon Gold 6126 (Skylake) |
| Cores/Node | 24 |
| RAM | 192GB |
| Accessible RAM | ~176GB |
| TMP Size | 705GB |
| Interconnect | 25GB Ethernet/ConnectX-5 EDR Infiniband |
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.
