Benefits of CLE3 and Cray’s Adaptive Supercomputing VisionPerformance: Support ultimate scalability

Scalability to run sustained petascale applications New storage and IO features with improved Lustre supportImproved scheduler features and supportBetter high-multicore node support with “Core Specialization”

Reliability: Industry-leading system availabilityNode health checking with “Advanced NodeKARE”Improved network resiliencyImproved serviceability and node replacement

Compatibility: Industry-standard OS baseSUSE base linuxImproved parallel IO support with “Data Virtualization Service (DVS)”Introducing CCM – Cluster Compatibility Mode

Flexibility: OS adapts at job runtimeExtreme Scalability Mode and Cluster Compatibility Mode

• No compromise scalability• Low-Noise Kernel for scalability• Native Comm. & Optimized MPI• Application-specific performance

tuning and scaling

ESM – Extreme Scalability Mode

• No compromise compatibility• Fully standard x86/Linux• Standardized Communication Layer• Out-of-the-box ISV Installation• ISV applications simply install and run

CCM –Cluster Compatibility Mode

CLE3 run mode is set by the user on a job-by-job basis to provide full flexibility

Cray Inc

• Many Applications running in Extreme Scalability Mode (ESM)• Submit CCM application through Batch Scheduler, nodes reserved

qsub -q ccm Qname AppScript• Nodes assigned by batch SW and configured for CCM• Executes the batch script and Application• Other nodes scheduled for ESM or CCM applications as available • After CCM job completes, CCM nodes cleared• CCM nodes available for ESM or CCM mode Applications
