9. LLNL-PRES-752119 9 software.llnl.gov TOSS – Tri-Lab Operating System Software § Built on Red Hat Enterprise Linux — Not an HPC distribution § Adds LLNL developed additions and patches to support HPC — Low Latency Interconnect: Infiniband — Parallel File System: Lustre — Resource Manager: SLURM § Work closely with open communities Components not in TOSS Supported Linux Commodity Hardware Platform Kernel, Infiniband, Message Passing Interface Batch Scheduler (MOAB) User Environment Lustre File Systems Compiler & Development Tools Resource Manager (SLURM) TOSS Components HPSS Hopper LLNL-PRES-550311 TOSS is a software stack for HPC – large, interconnected clusters!
10. LLNL-PRES-752119 10 software.llnl.gov § Began as simple resource manager — Now scalable to 1.6M+ cores (sequoia) § Launch and manage parallel jobs — Large, parallel jobs, often MPI § Queuing and scheduling of jobs — Much more work than resources http://slurm.schedmd.com http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-slurm-utility/figure3.gif
11. LLNL-PRES-752119 11 software.llnl.gov http://flux-framework.github.io § Family of projects used to build site-customized resource management systems § flux-core — Implements the communication layer and lowest level services and interfaces § flux-sched — Consists of an engine that handles all the functionality common to scheduling § capacitor — A bulk execution manager using flux-core, handles running and monitoring 1000’s of jobs
12. LLNL-PRES-752119 12 software.llnl.gov ZFS on Linux http://zfsonlinux.org § ZFS is an open source filesystem and volume manager designed to address the limitations of existing storage solutions § 2011: Available for Linux § Ten LLNL filesystems, totaling ~ 100PB § Ships in Ubuntu 16.04
13. LLNL-PRES-752119 13 software.llnl.gov § Handles combinatorial explosion of ABI-incompatible packages § All versions coexist, binaries work regardless of user’s environment § Familiar syntax, reminiscent of brew, yum, etc $ spack install mpileaks unconstrained $ spack install mpileaks@3.3 @ custom version $ spack install mpileaks@3.3 %gcc@4.7.3 % custom compiler $ spack install mpileaks@3.3 %gcc@4.7.3 +threads +/- build option $ spack install mpileaks@3.3 os=SuSE11 os=<frontend OS> $ spack install mpileaks@3.3 os=CNL10 os=<backend OS> $ spack install mpileaks@3.3 os=CNL10 target=haswell target=<cpu target> SPACK http://software.llnl.gov/spack
14. LLNL-PRES-752119 14 software.llnl.gov § Manages the first-ever decentralized database for handling climate science data § Multiple petabytes of data at dozens of federated sites worldwide § International collaboration for the software that powers most global climate change research https://github.com/ESGF http://esgf.llnl.gov
15. LLNL-PRES-752119 15 software.llnl.gov VisIt § Originally developed to visualize and analyze the results of terascale simulations § Interactive, scalable, visualization, animation and analysis tool § Powerful, easy to use GUI § Distributed and parallel architecture allows handling extremely large data sets interactively http://visit.llnl.gov
