The CS Department offers 2 HPC Clusters: hpcu.cs.odu.edu and hpcq.cs.odu.edu

hpcu.cs.odu.edu

The HPCU Cluster is a group of 64 SunFire v20z nodes with 2 single-core Opetrons at 1.8 GHz (64-bit) processors. All nodes are interconnected via Gigabit Ethernet. Each node has 2 GB of physical RAM and is running 64-Bit Linux as an operating system. The head node is also a SunFire V20z with 2 Gb of physical memory. It is named hpcu.local and subsequent nodes are named as compute-0-0 and so on till compute-0-62. Login to cluster is only allowed using an ssh client and a valid CS Department unix user-id.

hpcq.cs.odu.edu

The HPCQ Cluster is a group of 16 nodes with 2 Quad-Core Opetron at 2.6 GHz (64-bit) processors each. All nodes are interconnected by Gigabit Ethernet. The Head node is a Dell PowerEdge 2850 with 8 Gb of physical RAM. Each slave node is a Dell PowerEdge 1435SC with 16 GB of physical RAM and is running 64-Bit Linux as an operating system. The head node is named hpcq.local and subsequent nodes are named as compute-0-0 and so on till compute-0-14. HPCQ provides a 2.7 Terabytes space shared between all the nodes. It is available for usage to all users and shared at /scratchspace. Login to cluster is only allowed using an ssh client and a valud CS Department unix user-id.
