SGI offers a rackmounted flat panel console option that attaches to the administrative node’s video, keyboard and mouse connectors. The rackmounted console option is always installed in the air-cooled rack used for administrative, RLC and service node units.

  • Page 39: System Overview

    System Overview This chapter provides an overview of the physical and architectural aspects of your SGI Integrated Compute Environment (ICE) XA series system. The major components of the SGI ICE XA systems are described and illustrated. Because the system is modular, it combines the advantages of lower entry-level cost with global scalability in processors, memory, InfiniBand connectivity and I/O.
  • Page 40: System Models

    The SGI ICE XA series systems can run parallel programs using a message passing tool like the Message Passing Interface (MPI). The SGI ICE XA blade system uses a distributed memory scheme as opposed to a shared memory system like that used in the SGI UV series of high-performance compute servers.
  • Page 41: Figure 3-1 Sgi Ice Xa Series System E-Cell Assembly Example

    Figure 3-1 SGI ICE XA Series System E-Cell Assembly Example The compute rack enclosures within the SGI ICE XA system are 10.5U 9-blade units. Each enclosure supports between two and nine compute blade assemblies, up to nine power supplies, one chassis management controller (CMC) and up to four InfiniBand based I/O fabric switch interface blades.
  • Page 42 3: System Overview SGI ICE XA systems require a minimum of one 42U tall D-rack with PDUs installed to support standard and optional servers or storage units used with the ICE XA system. Figure 3-2 shows a diagram of the D-rack and typical support hardware that would be installed in the rack.

  • Page 44: Sgi Ice Xa System And Blade Architectures

    3: System Overview SGI ICE XA System and Blade Architectures The SGI ICE XA series of computer systems are based on an FDR InfiniBand I/O fabric. This concept is supported and enhanced by using the SGI ICE XA blade-level technologies described in the following subsections.
  • Page 45: Ip139 Blade Architecture Overview

    SGI ICE XA System and Blade Architectures The two processors on each node in an IP125 blade maintain an interactive communication link using the Intel QuickPath Interconnect (QPI) technology. This high-speed interconnect technology provides data transfers between the on-board processors. See the section “QuickPath Interconnect Features”...
  • Page 46: Quickpath Interconnect Features

    The IP139 compute blade cannot be plugged into and cannot be used in “previous generation” SGI ICE X, Altix ICE 8200 or 8400 series blade enclosures. Usage of ICE XA blade enclosures in non SGI ICE XA racks may be restricted/unsupported due to thermal requirements.
  • Page 47: Blade Memory Features

    32 DDR4 RDIMMs. Memory increments are in groups of four DIMMs per processor socket. Each Intel processor in an ICE XA IP139 blade uses four DDR4 memory channels with one or more memory DIMMs on each channel (depending on the configuration selected). Each of these blades uses four processors and up to 16 DIMMs.
  • Page 48: Memory Channel Recommendation

    One, two or four fourteen-data-rate (FDR) InfiniBand switch blades can be used with each blade enclosure pair configured in the SGI ICE XA system. The switch blades plug into the rear of the blade enclosure, which reduces latency and improves air flow. The switch blades provide the interface between compute blades within the same blade enclosure and also between compute blades in separate blade enclosures.
  • Page 49: System Features And Major Components

    System Features and Major Components System Features and Major Components The main features of the SGI ICE XA series server systems are introduced in the following sections: • “Modularity and Scalability” on page 31 • “Reliability, Availability, and Serviceability (RAS)” on page 38 Modularity and Scalability The SGI ICE XA series systems are modular, blade-based, scalable, high-density cluster systems.
  • Page 50: System Administration Server

    Each SGI ICE XA system will have one system administration controller, at least one rack leader controller (RLC) and at least one service node. All ICE XA systems require one RLC for every eight CMCs in the system. Figure 3-3 shows an overview of the SGI ICE XA system management and component network interaction.

  • Page 52: The Rlc As Fabric Manager

    Administration and RLC Cabling to Chassis Managers The RLC as Fabric Manager In some SGI ICE XA configurations the fabric management function is handled by the rack leader controller (RLC) node. The RLC is an independent server that is not part of the blade enclosure pair.
  • Page 53: Service Nodes

    (MPI) applications run in the system. An MPI job is started from the login node and the sub-processes are distributed to the ICE XA system’s compute nodes. Another operating factor for a login server is the file system structure. If the node is NFS-mounting a network storage system outside the ICE system, input data and output results will need to pass through for each job.
  • Page 54: Batch Server Node

    The I/O gateway server function may be combined with login or other service nodes for many configurations. If required, the I/O gateway server function can be hosted on an optional 1U or 2U stand-alone server within the ICE XA system. 007-6399-002...
  • Page 55: Optional Lustre Nodes Overview

    NFS. Optional Lustre Nodes Overview The nodes in the following subsections are used when the SGI ICE XA system is set up as a Lustre file system configuration. In SGI ICE XA installations the MDS and OSS functions are generally on separate nodes within the ICE XA system and communicating over a network.
  • Page 56: Oss Node

    The object storage server (OSS node) is one of the elements of a Lustre File Storage system. The OSS is managed by the SGI ICE XA management network. The OSS stores file data on one or more object storage targets (OSTs). Depending on the server’s hardware, an OSS node typically serves between two and eight OSTs, with each OST managing a single local disk filesystem.
