PBS Professional 11.0

PBS Professional 11.0 is designed for high-performance computing workload and resource management, combining intelligent scheduling algorithms with application-aware user portals and visualization tools that maximize return on HPC investments. Features include scheduler speed down to less than 30 seconds per cycle for typical HPC workloads (on up to 80,000 cores), cold start to less than one minute for 100,000 jobs, and “vnode” support for Cray systems, allowing individual MPI task selection, task placement, support for node exclusivity, and the framework for topology-aware scheduling. The software optimizes task placement for all HPC network topologies — such as Infiniband, SGI, Cray, IBM and GigE — improving application performance and reducing network contention.
