COREDUMP

The GeoComputing group operates a symmetric multi-processing (SMP) system with 16 cores and 128 GB of main memory. It acts as compute server for applications requiring a huge amount of directly addressable memory and as a test-bed for porting our applications to multi-core systems.

The system itself is an HP ProLiant DL580 Generation 5 server with four Intel Xeon X7350 (Tigerton) Quad-Core CPUs and a directly attached 147 GB hard-drive (RAID 1). Primary characteristics of the X7350's are given below.

Coredump is attached to our NetApp mass-storage system (brutto capacity 50 TB) and currently operated under Debian GNU/Linux. It was commissioned in April 2009.
