Cross compiler platformAdded support of a standalone, cross compiler machine for creating executables to be run onCray XT series systems (seeSection 1.1, page 1).ALPS Added support of ALPS (Application Level Placement Scheduler). ALPS is the applicationlauncher for CNL applications. For further information, seeSection 1.2, page 1.Create node lists by compute node attributesAdded support of the
cnselect
command. You can use
cnselect
to get a candidate listof compute nodes based on node attributes you specify. You can then use this list to launchapplications on compute nodes with those characteristics. For further information seeSection1.2, page1.Target architectureThe target architecture (CNL or Catamount) is set automatically at log in. For furtherinformation, seeSection 2.2, page 9.IRT Added IRT (Iterative Refinement Toolkit) to Cray XT-LibSci. You can use IRT as an efficientalternative to standard LAPACK or ScaLAPACK linear equation solvers. For furtherinformation, seeSection 3.2, page 13.ACML changesThe ACML module is no longer loaded as part of the default
PrgEnv
environment. Forfurther information, seeSection 3.3, page 16.PETSc Added support of PETSc (Portable, Extensible Toolkit for Scientific Computation). For furtherinformation, seeSection 3.5, page 18.OpenMP Added support of OpenMP for PGI, PathScale, and GCC applications that are run on CNLcompute nodes. For further information, seeSection 3.8, page 22.CNL Added support of CNL. CNL is a compute node operating system; sites can use it as analternative to Catamount. For further information, seeChapter 4, page 23.Unsupported PGI compiler command optionsAdded note that the PGI
-mprof=mpi
,
-Mmpi
, and
-Mscalapack
options are not supportedon Cray XT series systems (seeSection 4.1.1.5, page 25).
