Dancelot and Prancelot have been provisioned with RHEL7.0. I'd suggest not doing a full yum upgrade as it doesn't look like Intel supports RHEL's 7.1 kernel yet.

From: Judicael Zounmevo <jzounmevo(a)anl.gov> Judicael Zounmevo MCS We are investigating and implementing ways of having a single kernel expose different OS personalities characterized by the amount of enforced policies, the exposed mechanisms and the level of OS bypass for hardware access. Among other things, We seek to: -Grant HPC runtimes exclusive and direct(as much as possible) access to hardware resources. -Make system API calls behave differently depending on the partition of resources they are invoked on. Prancelot and Dancelot with a Xeon Phi card and a local hard drive. We need RHEL7 or equivalent (if possible) to be installed on the local hard drive initially and we will maintain the local hard drive contents. IPMI is required to cycle the machine power. We have no plan for PXE booting these nodes.

I could install RHEL7 on the servers and then you could install MPSS as Intel supports RHEL7. I just don't have the time to integrate MPSS into a RHEL7 warewulf image at the moment.

RHEL6 will do for the Xeon Phi card. However, I looked at the config of the nodes (hosts); and they are pretty good (far better than the Breadboard that I'm using for regular Xeon); so I was thinking that a recent kernel would be awesome for using the hosts as well to play with cgroups. We will wait until RHEL7 becomes usable :) Thanks, --Judi On 03/12/2015 10:55 AM, Allen, Benjamin S. wrote: > Would RHEL6 be OK?

Would RHEL6 be OK? I don't have a Xeon Phi image (i.e. MPSS) with RHEL7 yet. IB access is fine.

OK Kaz, thanks for the comments. I'll rewrite it tomorrow. For the exclusive physical memory ownership changes that we were planning, I wanted to test memory registration and the likes. It is not that important at this point though; it will probably take a while before we could test anything.
