System Management Tools for SHPC Systems - Partition Management

摘要

Processing element allocation is a fundamental service for the efficiency and performance of today's partitionable scalable high performance computing (SHPC) systems. In this paper we give an overview of different partitioning policies and introduce a Partition Management Tool (PMT) we developed. PMT could be integrated into the Intel Paragon's ParAide tool environment and is a major step towards an easy and efficient partition management.
