Submit Notes

The config file option 'submit' was used.
'numactl' was used to bind copies to the cores.
See the configuration file for details.

Operating System Notes

'ulimit -s unlimited' was used to set environment stack size
'ulimit -l 2097152'  was used to set environment locked pages in memory limit

Set vm/nr_hugepages=10800 in /etc/sysctl.conf
mount -t hugetlbfs nodev /mnt/hugepages

General Notes

Environment variables set by runspec before the start of the run:
HUGETLB_LIMIT = "450"
LD_LIBRARY_PATH = "/spec/amd0905is-libs/64:/spec/amd0905is-libs/32"
NCPUS = "24"
PGI_HUGE_PAGES = "450"

The x86 Open64 Compiler Suite is only available from (and supported by) AMD at
http://developer.amd.com/cpu/open64

System was tested in an open environment.
To ensure system stability, a 1000W (minimum) ATX power supply
[ 8-pin & 8-pin (+12V) and 24-pin are required ]
