| 20 | == Persistent Memory == |
| 21 | |
| 22 | Each of the DAM nodes is equipped with [https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/architecture-and-technology/optane-dc-persistent-memory.html Intel's Optane DC Persistent Memory Modules] (DCPMM). |
| 23 | Whereas the first two nodes (`dp-dam[01,02]`) expose 3 TB of persistent memory the remaining nodes (`dp-dam03-16]`) have 1.5 TB of persistent memory included. |
| 24 | |
| 25 | The DCPMMs can be driven in different modes. For further information of the operation modes and how to use them, please refer to the following [https://github.com/pmemhackathon/2019-11-08 information] |
| 26 | |
| 27 | DCPMM modes have been added To check which nodes are running in which mode, you can use the `scontrol` command: |
| 28 | |
| 29 | {{{ |
| 30 | scontrol show node dp-dam01 | grep AvailableFeatures |
| 31 | }}} |
| 32 | |
| 33 | To select a node using a certain memory mode, you can use the constraint option within SLURM, e.g.: |
| 34 | |
| 35 | {{{ |
| 36 | srun -p dp-dam -N 1 -c 24 -t 0:30:0 --constraint=dpcmm_mem --pty /bin/bash |
| 37 | }}} |
