Identical compute nodes are combined in partitions. More information about the hardware specification of each node can be found in the System Overview.

Partition

Nodes

Description

smp

prod-[001-120]

  • default partition,

  • MaxNodes=1 → MaxCores=128,

  • default RAM: 1900 MB/core
  • Jobs can share a node

smpht

prod-[121-240]

like smp but with hyperthreading (to be more precise: Simultaneous multithreading, SMT) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simultaneous_multithreadi

mpp

prod-[001-120]

  • exclusive access to nodes,

  • MaxNodes=240

mppht

prod-[121-240]

like mpp but with HT

fat

fat-00[1-2]

  • like smp but for jobs with extensive need of RAM

  • default RAM: 30000 MB/core

matlab

fat-00[3-4]

currently reserved for matlab users (as personal matlab licenses are node-bound). This might change later. Note: for testing fat-004 has HT enabled

Note

To prohibit single users from allocating entire resources on these dedicated nodes, we limit the resources per user in this partition to 32 CPUs and 1TB RAM. Please get in touch with us if these limitations conflict with your use case!


gpu

gpu-00[1-2]

  • like smp but...

  • ... the two gpu nodes each contain a different number and type of GPU:

    • gpu-001: 2x A40  

    • gpu-002: 4x A100

  • ...you have to specify the type and number of desired GPUs via
    --gpus=<GpuType>:<GpuQuantity>
    (otherwise no GPU will be allocated for you)
