| Overview |
|
IBM Parallel Environment for Linux™ on POWER™ is a high-function development and execution environment for parallel applications running on one or more System p5™ servers.
Parallel Environment for Linux on POWER can offer High Performance Computing (HPC) customers whose parallel applications use the industry-standard Message Passing Interface (MPI) a tool for creating and using parallel applications with a familiar look and feel. IBM's MPI implementation exploits an enhanced low-level application programming interface (LAPI) designed to increase parallel application performance on clusters made up of IBM POWER servers running the Linux OS.
Version 4.3 provides support for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 4, SLES 9, and SLES 10. Enhancements include:
- Up to 512 nodes and 4,096 tasks are supported.
- A parallel debugger has been added.
- InfiniBand interconnect on SLES 9 is supported.
- SLES 10 support is added.
- IP support is provided on various interconnects; IP mode uses the standard UDP/IP protocol, which is available on many interconnects.
- Performance improvements have been made to selected MPI collective communication subroutines.
- MPI one-sided communication performance has been substantially improved.
- The Parallel Operating Environment will copy user hard limit and soft limit values for non-LoadLeveler® interactive jobs.
Effective immediately, the Version 4.2 release of Parallel Environment for Linux on POWER is
withdrawn from marketing. Version 4.3 is a complete replacement.

Note: Parallel Environment is supported in a System p5 cluster environment interconnected with an IBM GX Dual-port 4x InfiniBand Host Channel Adapter. Parallel Environment in IP mode uses the standard UDP/IP protocol, which is available on many interconnects. Parallel Environment in IP mode is tested extensively on 1 Gb Ethernet.
Software requirements
Parallel Environment service update 4.3.0-1 is required.
Any of the following Linux distributions:
- SLES 9, Service Pack 3
- SLES 10
- RHEL 4.4
For development, any one of these compilers:
- IBM XL C/C++, 8.0.1
- IBM XL C/C++, V7.0.0-1
- IBM XL Fortran, 10.1.1
- IBM XL Fortran, V9.1.0-1
- GNU — Open Software Foundation (GNU does not compile Fortran 90 programs)
For User Space MPI/LAPI communication in a cluster environment interconnected with the InfiniBand Host Channel Adapter, TWS LoadLeveler V3.4 (5724-I23) is required.
Parallel Environment for Linux service update 4.3.0-1 can be obtained from the Cluster Service Web site
Limitations
- Parallel Environment for Linux on POWER™, V4.3 does not interoperate between different node types or different Linux distributions. All of the nodes used in a parallel job must be of the same type, running the same level of operating system (including service levels), same Linux distribution, and same level for all portions of the Parallel Environment package.
- Parallel Environment for Linux on POWER offers a thread-safe MPI library supporting all of MPI 1.1, 1.2, and 2.0, except the functions specified in the "MPI-2: Extensions to the Message Passing Interface" chapter on "Process Creation and Management" found at the MPI Web site
- For Parallel Environment for Linux, InfiniBand adapters are only supported on POWER5™ servers running SLES 9; InfiniBand adapters on any other platform are not supported.
Performance considerations: Parallel Environment and the MPI library are intended for use in HPC applications that can exploit multiple processors to achieve parallelism, using message passing to pass data among the processors where necessary. In such environments, performance of the interconnecting network may be important.
In this release, MPI and LAPI use either UDP/IP or InfiniBand User Space communication between compute nodes. Parallel Environment's use of UDP is effective in getting the most fitting bandwidth, latency, and scalability available in the underlying IP network. For improved performance, the use of the InfiniBand adapter with SLES 9 is preferred. Enhanced performance can be achieved with a dedicated, high-performance network within the cluster to be used for MPI communication.
For additional performance, shared memory is used by default for point-to-point passing of data among processors within an SMP without changes to the application. In 64-bit mode, there are shared memory-based enhancements to certain collective communication routines.
For convenience in developing applications, or on systems without an InfiniBand adapter, the user may select UDP/IP as the data transport rather than User Space. This is done via a run-time specification and is transparent to the application. Performance does not match User Space, but the application under development ties up fewer dedicated resources.
Jobs with large task counts are often constrained by the amount of memory available to a process. This version of Parallel Environment uses less memory for jobs with larger task counts than prior versions and may improve performance by allowing a larger problem data space to be maintained in real memory.
Planning information
Ensure all of the nodes used in a parallel job are running the same level of operating system, same Linux distribution, and same level for all portions of the Parallel Environment package.
Customers wishing to expand their Parallel Environment jobs beyond 4,096 tasks may submit a special bid.
Packaging: This program is distributed as a single package available via CD-ROM media (LCD8-0280-01). A product README file and license information file is shipped with the product.
The license information file (L-RHAN-6RRR4W or LC23-4997-00) is available for review on the IBM Software License Agreement Web site
Security, auditability, and control
Parallel Environment for Linux uses the security and auditability features of the Linux operating system. The customer is responsible for evaluation, selection, and implementation of security features, administrative procedures, and appropriate controls in application systems and communication facilities.

Variable charges:
The applicable processor-based one-time charge will be based on the
group of the designated machine on which the program is licensed for use.
If the program is designated to a processor in a group for which no
charge is listed, the charge of the next higher group listed applies.
For movement to a machine in a higher group, an upgrade charge equal to
the difference in the then-current charges between the two groups will
apply. For movement to a machine in a lower group, there will be no
adjustment or refund of charges paid.
