Managing Your Cluster Working with Your Cluster Learn about LSF Before using LSF for the first time, you should download and read LSF Foundations Guide for an overall understanding of how LSF works. Basic concepts Job states: LSF jobs have the following states: v PEND: Waiting in a queue for scheduling and dispatch v RUN: Dispatched to a host and running v DONE: Finished normally with zero exit value v EXIT: Finished with non-zero exit value v PSUSP: Suspended while pending v USUSP: Suspended by user v SSUSP: Suspended by the LSF system v POST_DONE: Post-processing completed without errors v POST_ERR: Post-processing completed with errors v UNKWN: mbatchd lost contact with sbatchd on the host on which the job runs v WAIT: For jobs submitted to a chunk job queue, members of a chunk job that are waiting to run v ZOMBI: A job becomes ZOMBI if the execution host is unreachable when a non-rerunnable job is killed or a rerunnable job is requeued Host: An individual computer in the cluster. Each host might have more than one processor. Multiprocessor hosts are used to run parallel jobs. A multiprocessor host with a single process queue is considered a single machine, while a box full of processors that each have their own process queue is treated as a group of separate machines. Tip: The names of your hosts should be unique. They should not be the same as the cluster name or any queue defined for the cluster. Job: A unit of work that is run in the LSF system. A job is a command submitted to LSF for execution, using the bsub command. LSF schedules, controls, and tracks the job according to configured policies. Jobs can be complex problems, simulation scenarios, extensive calculations, anything that needs compute power. © Copyright IBM Corp. 1992, 2013 1 Working with Your Cluster Job files When a job is submitted to a queue, LSF holds it in a job file until conditions are right for it to be executed. Then the job file is used to execute the job. UNIX: The job file is a Bourne shell script that is run at execution time. Windows: The job file is a batch file that is processed at execution time. Interactive batch job: A batch job that allows you to interact with the application and still take advantage of LSF scheduling policies and fault tolerance. All input and output are through the terminal that you used to type the job submission command. When you submit an interactive job, a message is displayed while the job is awaiting scheduling. A new job cannot be submitted until the interactive job is completed or terminated. Interactive task: A command that is not submitted to a batch queue and scheduled by LSF, but is dispatched immediately. LSF locates the resources needed by the task and chooses the best host among the candidate hosts that has the required resources and is lightly loaded. Each command can be a single process, or it can be a group of cooperating processes. Tasks are run without using the batch processing features of LSF but still with the advantage of resource requirements and selection of the best host to run the task based on load. Local task: An application or command that does not make sense to run remotely. For example, the ls command on UNIX. Remote task: An application or command that can be run on another machine in the cluster. Host types and host models: Hosts in LSF are characterized by host type and host model. The following example is a host with type X86_64, with host models Opteron240, Opteron840, Intel_EM64T, etc. Host type: The combination of operating system and host CPU architecture. All computers that run the same operating system on the same computer architecture are of the same type - in other words, binary-compatible with each other. 2 Administering IBM Platform LSF Working with Your Cluster Each host type usually requires a different set of LSF binary files. Host model: The host type of the computer, which determines the CPU speed scaling factor that is applied in load and placement calculations. The CPU factor is considered when jobs are being dispatched. Resources: Resource usage: The LSF system uses built-in and configured resources to track resource availability and usage. Jobs are scheduled according to the resources available on individual hosts. Jobs submitted through the LSF system will have the resources they use monitored while they are running. This information is used to enforce resource limits and load thresholds as well as fairshare scheduling. LSF collects information such as: v Total CPU time that is consumed by all processes in the job v Total resident memory usage in KB of all currently running processes in a job v Total virtual memory usage in KB of all currently running processes in a job v Currently active process group ID in a job v Currently active processes in a job On UNIX, job-level resource usage is collected through PIM. Load indices: Load indices measure the availability of dynamic, non-shared resources on hosts in the cluster. Load indices built into the LIM are updated at fixed time intervals. External load indices: Defined and configured by the LSF administrator and collected by an External Load Information Manager (ELIM) program. The ELIM also

Introduction to AMD’s processor families (3) Historical remarks 1) Beyond x86 processors AMD also designed and marketed two embedded processor families; • the 2900 family of bipolar, 4-bit slice microprocessors (1975-?) used in a number of processors, such as particular DEC 11 family models, and • the 29000 family (29K family) of CMOS, 32-bit embedded microcontrollers (1987-95). In late 1995 AMD cancelled their 29K family development and transferred the related design team to the firm’s K5 effort, in order to focus on x86 processors [3]. 2) Initially, AMD designed the Am386/486 processors that were clones of Intel’s processors.

    00068_CH04_Null.qxd 10/18/10 12:03 PM Page 195 “When you wish to produce a result by means of an instrument, do not allow yourself to complicate it.” —Leonardo da Vinci CHAPTER MARIE: An Introduction 4 to a Simple Computer 4.1 INTRODUCTION esigning a computer nowadays is a job for a computer engineer with plenty of Dtraining. It is impossible in an introductory textbook such as this (and in an introductory course in computer organization and architecture) to present every- thing necessary to design and build a working computer such as those we can buy today. However, in this chapter, we first look at a very simple computer called MARIE: a Machine Architecture that is Really Intuitive and Easy. We then pro- vide brief overviews of Intel and MIPs machines, two popular architectures reflecting the CISC and RISC design philosophies. The objective of this chapter is to give you an understanding of how a computer functions. We have, therefore, kept the architecture as uncomplicated as possible, following the advice in the opening quote by Leonardo da Vinci. 4.2 CPU BASICS AND ORGANIZATION From our studies in Chapter 2 (data representation) we know that a computer must manipulate binary-coded data. We also know from Chapter 3 that memory is used to store both data and program instructions (also in binary). Somehow, the program must be executed and the data must be processed correctly. The central processing unit (CPU) is responsible for fetching program instructions, decod- ing each instruction that is fetched, and performing the indicated sequence of operations on the correct data.

  • Athlon XP 2600+ Reviewed Athlon XP 2600+ Reviewed by Johan De Gelas – August 2002
    Ace’s Hardware Athlon XP 2600+ Reviewed Athlon XP 2600+ Reviewed By Johan De Gelas – August 2002 AMD Takes Up the Gauntlet with Flair The last few quarters have been pure agony for AMD. Sales and turnover figures plunged to terrible lows and AMD's results where written in bloody red ink. Thoroughbred, the 130 nanometer Athlon XP was limited to a 66 MHz increase over its older brother Palomino. The race with Intel was lost: Intel's 2.53 GHz Pentium 4 was arguably the fastest x86 processor in the world. After launching the Thoroughbred Athlon XP 2200+, many people on the Internet were forecasting doom scenarios for AMD. The disappointing initial clockspeeds were, however, no surprise for the hardware veterans among you. When Thoroughbred was launched, we stated: "Our sources indicate that AMD's yields at 0.13µ are pretty good, but the current bin splits have a lot of room for improvement. While 1.5V is good enough to get the Thoroughbred up to 1600 MHz, higher clockspeeds are only attained with some kind of overclocking. Now this is hardly of a reason for panic, as it is even sort of a "tradition" for AMD. With far fewer resources for debugging and tuning, new process technology almost always experiences some teething problems." Contrary to Intel, AMD has neither funds nor fabs for backup plans, so moves to new process technology or new processor layouts are always somewhat risky. New process technology or layout changes often initially result in yield, clock scaling, and/or binsplit problems, and the time that it takes to resolve these issues tends to be very variable.
