MARCONI

All projects active on

...

GALILEO after September 4th will be duplicated on MARCONI.

...

 

The project budget will be set to the residual budget of the original project with the same rate (one core-h on

...

MARCONI = one core-h on

GALILEO).

The project name and residual budget on

The users will have the possibility to run their jobs on both clusters up to September 4th, 2017. 

How to move data from GALILEO to MARCONI

The

...

GALILEO storage is not shared with

 How How to get confident with MARCONI

...

MARCONI is an HPC cluster, made of three different partitions: A1 (based on Broadwell nodes), A2 (based on Knightslanding nodes) and A3 (Skylakes node,

to be installed this summer).

...

The HPC Users' Guide for

...

MARCONI can be find at the following link:

https://wiki.u-gov.it/confluence/display/SCAIUS/UG3.1%3A+MARCONI+UserGuide

Users migrating from

...

GALILEO will get access to A1 partition.

On

...

MARCONI the latest releases of Intel and Gnu compilers and related libraries are available. Users' own codes will need recompilation prior their usage on

...

MARCONI compute nodes, in order to get advances of the new hardware.

The

...

MARCONI environment is similar to the one of

...

GALILEO. The number of cores/node is different

...

: 16 cores on Galileo and 36 on Marconi. The internal network

is different too (Omnipath network on Marconi), but the performance should be comparable.

...

For more info please check our on-line documentation.

Pay attention to the different "module" environment on MARCONI. On Marconi a new feature has been added to the module environment: the profiles are of two

types,  “domain” type (chem, phys, lifesc,.

...

.) for the production activity and “programming” type (base and advanced)  for compilation, debugging and profiling activities

and that they can be loaded together. Please, see the on-line guide: MARCONI UserGuide .  All the applications available on

...

GALILEO should be present also on

...

MARCONI.

Sometimes on

...

MARCONI are present more updated application versions and we do not plan to install all versions.

If the application you are interested in is not present on Marconi, please feel free to ask superc@cineca.it.
