Our in-house designed (Joachim Stadel & Ben Moore 2003), massively parallel supercomputer for running our cosmological N-body simulations. >> more...
The zBox2 was installed January 2006 with 125 quad opteron 852 nodes and a total of 580Gb ram and 65 Tb of disk. The nodes are connected with a high speed 3D SCI network.
The mass storage system 'smaug' was installed in late 2006.
It provides unlimited capacity on tape (currently ~100 TB),
while holding only the most active data online in a ~30 TB disk cache with 150 disks.
