Linux:
- The scratch space on /clusta
and /clustb
has been increased up to 8 TB each. In addition to the previously mounted clusta and /clustb the new scratch space on /clustc and /clustd
with 8 TB each, was added.
- /clusta and /clustb are available on ibicluster
and ibifast
- /clustc and clustd are available on jpcluster
and brdfcluster
- brdfgate has mounts for all
clusters (clusta, clustb,
clustc, and clustd)
- The file servers holding the
user home directories “/userhome” and “/userhom1” have been replaced with RAID 6 capable file
servers with expanded available storage.
- BRDFAPPS and BRDFBMEM were
phased out in favor of BRDFBIGL,
which has 16 processors, and 256G of memory.
- We have deployed a new main
cluster known as ibicluster
to service all iBi users currently there are 256
nodes on the cluster . We have also deployed a new fast cluster known as ibifast to
replace brdffast
– this cluster has 64 nodes and maintains the 24 hour time to live
for jobs as the cluster it replaced.
- Brdfcluster remains in service. Only
people who have reserved nodes before the upgrade can use this cluster. All
other users should send jobs to ibicluster.
Please check the cluster usage
