Affinity scheduling must take L3 cache hierarchy into account

Newer CPUs have multiple L3 caches, with dedicated cores per L3 cache. Running multi-threaded jobs on all cores within a shared L3 cache can reduce runtime in our cases up 70%, compared to running over multiple L3 caches. Think of the AMD EPYC 935...

RTM: GPU Utilization and GPU Mem Utilization graphs for jobs based on the Host level graphs

Current state challenges: While there are per job GPU graphs they require DCGM and are restricted to only exclusive process gpu jobs. DCGM adds complexity and precludes a number of GPUs particularly ones that might be considered gamer cards as the...

Support for Bind avoidance when using Enterprise Cobol with co-processor

The basic idea of Bind Avoidance is to exchange the consistency token in the executing code from the current version to the previous which means that no package bind will be necessary. Traditionally the Db2 pre-compiler has been used to pre-proces...

MC scheduling enhancement to enable multiple LSF clusters with same clustername

I think there is bug in how LSF implements multi-cluster functionality. It assumes clustername as uniq/primary key in the list of participating clusters and we still have few LSF clusters with same name - cluster1 (site1), cluster1 (site2), cluste...
