Compilers There are C/C++ and FORTRAN compilers from different vendors including the Portland Group (PGI) and Intel installed on the cluster. Overall, they perform comparably on most codes. You may find that your codes compile more easily and/or get better performance using a particular compiler. The following table shows what is available on Discovery and…

Debugger Description gdb You can use GDB to debug programs written in Fortran, Objective C, C and C++.  GDB can do four main kinds of things (plus other things in support of these) to help you catch bugs in the act: Start your program, specifying anything that might affect its behavior. Make your program stop…

Overview The DISCOVERY Cluster is an exciting opportunity for researchers to participate in creating a world-class super computer devoted to furthering research at Dartmouth. Researchers considering their own purchase of a Linux cluster are invited to consider the advantages of joining the cooperative Discovery cluster. Discovery has been running since the fall of 2005 and…

Discovery  is a Linux cluster comprised of: 85 16-Core (2x) Intel nodes (1360 cores) 18 24-Core (2x) Intel nodes (432 cores) 13 40-core (2x) Intel nodes (520 cores) 10 64-core (2x) AMD nodes (640 cores) In aggregate, the cluster has 2016 cores, 14.5TB of memory, and more than 1.8 PB of disk space. Node Hardware…

The Discovery infrastructure has undergone a substantial expansion, now comprising over 6,000 computational cores on CentOS linux. This system is further bolstered by an array of GPU nodes that incorporate 10 A100 GPUs, 72 A5500 GPUs, and 12 V100 GPUs. These resources interface with a 2.6 PB Isilon storage system, denominated as DartFS. This computational…
