On the TeraGrid, what is the IA-32 visualization cluster?
The IA-32 visualization cluster is an advanced visualization system at the University of Chicago/Argonne National Laboratory (UC/ANL). TeraGrid login access was removed July 1, 2009. It is now used exclusively in support of the TeraGrid Visualization Gateway.
The IA-32 visualization cluster consists of 96 nodes with two Intel Xeon 2.4GHz processors and 4GB of physical memory per node. Each node is built with the SuSE Linux Enterprise Server version 8, and interconnected using Myricom's Myrinet network.
For further information about compute and visualization resources on the TeraGrid, see the Resource Catalog in the TeraGrid User Support documentation.
