Hi Chris (all), My name is Mike McCardle - I am the lead engineer for RLX's compute cluster solutions. If you have any questions at all on running LSF, SGE, PBS... on ServerBlades, "why RLX did that...." or how we did our benchmarking please send me an email. Attached is a link to the white paper I wrote earlier this year and our cluster solution user's guide. The white paper covers some really high level/general stuff at the beginning and then gets into the performance numbers in the 2nd half of the paper. http://www.rlx.com/pdf/RLXClusterTechWP.pdf and http://www.rlx.com/pdf/RLX_Cluster_Guide_PRT-0001520A02.pdf -- ________________________________________ Mike McCardle Systems Software Engineer RLX Technologies, Inc. 25231 Grogans Mill Rd.

I plan on testing them out with both gridengine and platform LSF and am open to suggestions/requests for specific benchmark tests or use cases. Remote acccess via SSH to the mini-cluster may not be out of the question as well if anyone has very specific stuff they'd like to try out. Drop me a line if interested. 2nd: Roll Call Are people going to the BioIT World Expo event in San Diego (http://www.bioitworldexpo.com) this November? Is it worth trying to get a biocluster BOF or pub-night event going on the 12th or 13th? -Chris -- Chris Dagdigian, <dag@sonsorol.org> Independent life science IT & informatics consulting Office: 617-666-6454, Mobile: 617-877-5498, Fax: 425-699-0193 PGP KeyID: 83D4310E Yahoo IM: craffi Web: http://bioteam.net _______________________________________________ Bioclusters maillist - Bioclusters@bioinformatics.org https://bioinformatics.org/mailman/listinfo/bioclusters
