Cluster Management
Platform HPC Workgroup Edition
Platform HPC Workgroup Edition is the industry’s most complete suite of solutions for HPC users. It includes familiar easy-to-use cluster
management tools. Platform Cluster Manager provides provisioning and management for Linux® clusters. Platform LSF Workgroup Edition is a sophisticated workload scheduler.
Platform MPI (formerly called HP MPI) is the market’s fastest MPI implementation. Platform LSF web interface provides an easy to use portal solution for users to manage their cluster
jobs, and Platform ISF Adaptive Cluster gives users the ability to make their clusters dynamic when diverse compute resources are needed.
Platform HPC Workgroup Edition includes all the cluster management tools you will need to easily deploy, run and manage your HPC environment while meeting the most demanding
requirements for application performance and predictable workload management. The result is a complete cluster solution that provides superior performance, reliability and price,
while removing the complexity associated with Linux®-based clusters.

Intel® Remote Management Module 3
Overview
The Intel® RMM3 is a 1.23-inch x 2.30-inch printed circuit board. When installed onto the Intel® RMM connector on Intel® server boards, it
provides an increased level of manageability over basic server management available to the server board.
Designed to work with the Integrated Baseboard Management Controller (BMC), this small form-factor mezzanine card enables graphical server control from anywhere, at
anytime.
Features and Benefits
| Lower costs by reducing travel time—with a virtual presence, you don't have to be there |
| Reduces downtime by enabling administrators to recognize emerging trends and address
problems before they impact services |
| Provides security by segmenting management traffic onto a dedicated network connection and
supports industry standards including SMASH-CLP and WS-MAN |
| Connects administrators to remote servers over a secure SSL connection to monitor system
health and perform maintenance tasks |
| Loads operating systems and other software on remote machines from storage devices
attached to their local machine |
