Compute servers

  • There are 8 x 28-core compute nodes with 256GB RAM each (wonko1 - wonko8)
  • There is a 96-core SMP server with 3TB of RAM (alf)

Storage

  • Please also see Storage Quotas and Charges
  • Home directories are on a 80TB NFS4 filesystem over Infiniband (/home)
  • Data directories are on a 1.2PB Lustre filesystem over Infiniband (/lustre/users)
  • Scratch directories are on a 1.2PB Lustre filesystem over Infiniband (/lustre/scratch/users)

Backups

  • Data is backed up daily to a 1.5 PB ZFS JBOD system. Please contact the system administrator (johann.swart at up.ac.za) if restores are needed.
