NCSA TeraGrid IA-64 Linux Cluster

NCSA's IA-64 TeraGrid cluster consists of 887 IBM cluster nodes: 256 nodes with dual 1.3 GHz Intel® Itanium® 2 processors (Phase 1) and 631 nodes with dual 1.5 GHz Intel® Itanium® 2 processors (Phase 2). Half of the 1.3 GHz nodes and all the 1.5 GHz nodes are equipped with four gigabytes (GBs) of memory per node; the other half of the 1.3 GHz nodes are large-memory processors with 12 GBs of memory per node, making them ideal for running memory-intensive applications. The cluster is running SuSE Linux and is using Myricom's Myrinet cluster interconnect network.
