[Beowulf] HPC demo

[John McCulloch]

Thank you everyone for the responses; this is a great starting point.

The cluster is owned by a customer and it’s their upper management who would like to see a demo. They have asked me to install a few open source packages like Dakota and OpenCV (two GPU nodes) plus some in-house developed stuff.

The homepage for your company specifically advertises HPC services and expertise. Which upper management would need the demo, and are there any applications they’re interested in?

I recently inherited management of a cluster and my knowledge is limited to a bit of Red Hat. I need to figure out a demo for upper management graphically demonstrating the speed up of running a parallel app on one x86 node versus multiple nodes up to 36. They have dual Gold 6132 procs and Mellanox EDR interconnect. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
