I/O analysis using DTrace
by Senthil Ramanujam
Solaris's powerful and open sourced DTrace set of tools allows any user interested in solving I/O performance issues to observe how I/O are carried out by the Operating System and related drivers. The ever increasing set of DTrace features and adoption by various vendors is a strong proof of its usefulness.
Linux HPC Software Stack - Video Blog

Sun HPC Software, Linux Edition 1.1
by Makia Minich
The announcement went out today on our mailing lists of the 1.1 release of the Sun HPC Software stack.
First, you might be asking, "What happened to 1.0?". Well, that was released and got some really good feedback, it just seems that the one who writes these blog entries never quite got around to actually writing one for 1.0. Please ridicule him as much as possible, since he really deserves it. But, all of this is in the past now; on to 1.1.
As some might know, 1.0 was based on CentOS 5.1. The 1.1 release brings us up to a CentOS 5.2 base, but also includes the option to deploy on a RedHat Enterprise Linux 5.2 OS as well. We had heard a few requests for this inclusion, and here we go. Gone also is the "build-an-iso" option seen from 1.0 (if you don't know what that is, it's ok, we've all moved on). We now provide a new installation option based on Kickstart that allows a system administrator to perform a semi- or fully-automated installation of an RPM-based Linux system.
So what's new?
by Glenn Brunett
Today, there is no shortage of computing problems that are being tackled using high performance computers, interconnects, storage and data visualization, but we need to widen our views, remove our blinders, and begin to see HPC as it exists everywhere.
Building big grids
by Dave Levy
Both Storage and Systems are forecast to grow at double digit rates for the next few years, where as commercial IT is expected to standstill at best. Over 30% of CPUs are going to be bought by HPC solutions during this period and at the moment, 65% of the HPC market is educational and/or research institutes.
