Facility |
|
local storage | Storage that is available or accessible from one node in the HP XC system. |
LSF execution host | The node on which LSF runs. A user's job is submitted to the LSF execution host. Jobs are launched |
| from the LSF execution host and are executed on one or more compute nodes. |
LSF master host | The overall LSF coordinator for the system. The master load information manager (LIM) and master |
| batch daemon (mbatchd) run on the LSF master host. Each system has one master host to do all |
| job scheduling and dispatch. If the master host goes down, another LSF server in the system |
| becomes the master host. |
| Load Sharing Facility for High Performance Computing integrated with SLURM. The batch system |
SLURM | resource manager on an HP XC system that is integrated with SLURM. |
| a job in a queue and allows it to run when the necessary resources become available. |
| with SLURM manages just one resource: the total number of processors designated for batch |
| processing. |

| batch job allows you to interact with the application while still taking advantage of |
| SLURM scheduling policies and features. An |

| See Also LSF execution host. |
LVS | Linux Virtual Server. Provides a centralized login capability for system users. LVS handles incoming |
| login requests and directs them to a node with a login role. |

Management | See MP. |
Processor |
|
master host | See LSF master host. |
module | A package that provides for the dynamic modification of a user's environment by means of |
| modulefiles. |
| See Also modulefile. |
modulefile | Contains information that alters or sets shell environment variables, such as PATH and MANPATH. |
| Modulefiles enable various functions to start and operate properly. |
MP | Management Processor. Controls the system console, reset, and power management functions |
| on HP Integrity servers. |
MPI | Message Passing Interface. A library specification for message passing, proposed as a standard |
| by a broadly based committee of vendors, implementors, and users. |
MySQL | A relational database system developed by MySQL AB that is used in HP XC systems to store |
| and track system configuration information. |
N |
|
NAT | Network Address Translation. A mechanism that provides a mapping (or transformation) of |
| addresses from one network to another. This enables external access of a machine on one LAN |
| that has the same IP address as a machine on another LAN, by mapping the LAN address of the |
| two machines to different external IP addresses. |
Network Address | See NAT. |
