HP Workgroup System AWSXCIG-1A manual Itrc

iLO2	The next generation of iLO that provides full remote graphics console access and remote virtual
	media.
	See also iLO.
image server	A node specifically designated to hold images that will be distributed to one or more client
	systems. In a standard HP XC installation, the head node acts as the image server and golden
	client.
Integrated Lights	See iLO.
Out
interconnect	A hardware component that provides high-speed connectivity between the nodes in the HP
	XC system. It is used for message passing and remote memory access capabilities for parallel
	applications.
interconnect	A module in an HP BladeSystem server. The interconnect module provides the Physical I/O
module	ports for the server blades and can be either a switch, with connections to each of the server
	blades and some number of external ports, it can be or a pass-through module, with individual
	external ports for each of the server blades.
	See also server blade.
interconnect	The private network within the HP XC system that is used primarily for user file access and
network	for communications within applications.
Internet address	A unique 32-bit number that identifies a host's connection to an Internet network. An Internet
	address is commonly represented as a network number and a host number and takes a form
	similar to the following: 192.0.2.0.
ITRC	HP IT Resource Center. The HP corporate web page where software patches are made available.
	The web address is http://www.itrc.hp.com. To download patches from this web page, you
	must register as an Americas/Asia Pacific or European customer.
L
load file	A file containing the names of multiple executables that are to be launched simultaneously by
	a single command.
Load Sharing	See LSF-HPC with SLURM.
Facility
local storage	Storage that is available or accessible from one node in the HP XC system.
LSF execution	The node on which LSF runs. A user's job is submitted to the LSF execution host. Jobs are
host	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.
LSF-HPC with	Load Sharing Facility for High Performance Computing integrated with SLURM. The batch
SLURM	system resource manager on an HP XC system that is integrated with SLURM. LSF-HPC with
	SLURM places a job in a queue and allows it to run when the necessary resources become
	available. LSF-HPC with SLURM manages just one resource: the total number of processors
	designated for batch processing.
	LSF-HPC with SLURM can also run interactive batch jobs and interactive jobs. An LSF interactive
	batch job allows you to interact with the application while still taking advantage of LSF-HPC
	with SLURM scheduling policies and features. An LSF-HPC with SLURM interactive job is run
	without using LSF-HPC with SLURM batch processing features but is dispatched immediately
	by LSF-HPC with SLURM on the LSF execution host.
	See also LSF execution host.
M
MCS	An optional integrated system that uses chilled water technology to triple the standard cooling
	capacity of a single rack. This system helps take the heat out of high-density deployments of
	servers and blades, enabling greater densities in data centers.
