Sounds good! Let's get rid of B0. I think we can't publish results from B0 anyway. I'll pull the C0 cards from tinkerlab machines and give them to you. - kaz On 02/16/2015 01:03 PM, Allen, Benjamin S. wrote: >> On Feb 16, 2015, at 1:00 PM, Kazutomo Yoshii <kazutomo(a)mcs.anl.gov> wrote: >> >> >> What is "our existing gear", btw?

What is "our existing gear", btw? Jenny, Ruth or Lucie? prancelot, dancelot? If you can provide a dedicated access (in a time-sharing manner) to one of these machines, I guess that's good enough for them. - kaz On 02/16/2015 12:53 PM, Allen, Benjamin S. wrote: > Yea Haswell-EP is the only host hardware we have that will work for a Xeon Phi unless we wanted to pull the GPUs from Maud or Neddy. > > Ben > >> On Feb 16, 2015, at 12:52 PM, Kazutomo Yoshii <kazutomo(a)mcs.anl.gov> wrote: >> >> Ben, >> >> Thanks! >> >> They don't need Haswell-EP for Xeon Phi. >> Any host would be good enough as long as it works. >> >> - kaz >> >> On 02/16/2015 11:28 AM, Allen, Benjamin S. wrote: >>> Hi Kaz, >>> >>> Our existing Xeon Phi machines are pretty lightly used as of late.

Yea Haswell-EP is the only host hardware we have that will work for a Xeon Phi unless we wanted to pull the GPUs from Maud or Neddy.

Ben, Thanks! They don't need Haswell-EP for Xeon Phi. Any host would be good enough as long as it works. - kaz On 02/16/2015 11:28 AM, Allen, Benjamin S. wrote: > Hi Kaz, > > Our existing Xeon Phi machines are pretty lightly used as of late.

Hi Kaz, Our existing Xeon Phi machines are pretty lightly used as of late. If Judi and Swann need dedicated access to one for some amount of time, we can accommodate with our existing gear. I'd prefer we not dedicate one of the Haswell-EP machines to a specific task until the DDN IME eval is done using them.

[JLSE-Admins] Project Request Form
by Swann Perarnau 13 Feb '15

13 Feb '15

From: Swann Perarnau <swann(a)anl.gov> Integration and Validation of Argo's components. Swann Perarnau MCS Argo is a research project at Argonne to develop an exascale operating system and runtime stack. This project is used at a testbed to integrate and validate the various components of Argo. We will focus primarily on the resource management, group membership, and communication services across nodes, as well as deployment of our own system images. Thus, this project requires dedicated access to the network, power management and the booting process of the system. ARGO Swann Perarnau Judicael Zounmevo (other users might be added later) One management node acting as control server for IPMI, DHCP, PXE and several dedicated nodes (root access). As the software stack evolves, other client nodes might be required. [Schedule (when access is needed and for how long):] -- This e-mail was sent from a contact form on The Joint Laboratory for System Evaluation (http://press3.mcs.anl.gov/jlse)
