&lt;h2 id="storage">Storage&lt;/h2>
&lt;ul>
&lt;li>Four enterprise class HPC storage systems&lt;/li>
&lt;li>Approximately 3 PB production and 3 PB backup storage (total 6 PB or 6,144 TB)&lt;/li>
&lt;li>GPFS (NFS and SAMBA via GPFS)&lt;/li>
&lt;li>Automatic snapshots and monthly backups&lt;/li>
&lt;/ul>
&lt;h2 id="network">Network&lt;/h2>
&lt;ul>
&lt;li>Ethernet
&lt;ul>
&lt;li>2 x 40 Gb/s redundant connections to the campus high performance research network&lt;/li>
&lt;li>1 x 10 Gb/s connection to the public internet&lt;/li>
&lt;li>Redundant, load balanced, robust mesh topology&lt;/li>
&lt;/ul>
&lt;/li>
&lt;li>Interconnect
&lt;ul>
&lt;li>56/200/400 Gb/s InfiniBand (FDR/HDR/NDR)&lt;/li>
&lt;/ul>
&lt;/li>
&lt;/ul>
&lt;h2 id="head-nodes">Head Nodes&lt;/h2>
&lt;p>All users should access the cluster via SSH through &lt;code>cluster.hpcc.ucr.edu&lt;/code>. This address will automatically balance traffic to one of the available head nodes.&lt;/p>
&lt;ul>
&lt;li>bluejay, skylark
&lt;ul>
&lt;li>Resources: 256 cores, 512 GB memory&lt;/li>
&lt;li>Primary function: submitting jobs to the queuing system&lt;/li>
&lt;li>Secondary function: development; code editing and running small (under 50 % CPU and under 0.5 GB RAM) sample jobs&lt;/li>
&lt;/ul>
&lt;/li>
&lt;/ul>
&lt;h2 id="worker-nodes">Worker Nodes&lt;/h2>
&lt;p>For a full list of nodes, please see our &lt;a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1SVH1-c1i075vjt-B0wNPiK87wmLkPltWJlIPgLkmoqU/">Node List&lt;/a> sheet. This contains info on all nodes (public and private) that we have. This includes CPU, memory, and GPU specs, as well as any features that the nodes have.&lt;/p>
&lt;p>For more info about queueing jobs see the &lt;a href="https://hpcc.ucr.edu/manuals/hpc_cluster/jobs/">Managing Jobs&lt;/a> page. For queueing jobs to nodes with specific features, see the &lt;a href="https://hpcc.ucr.edu/manuals/hpc_cluster/jobs/#feature-constraints">Feature Constraints&lt;/a> section.&lt;/p></description></item></channel></rss>
