Based on Windows Server 2008 R2, the CTP is a preliminary release, allowing an early preview of planned functionality for HPC Server 2008 R2.\u00a0<!--?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office\" ?--><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin:0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';font-size:11pt;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin:0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';font-size:11pt;\">In our labs, we\u2019re up and running on Windows Server 2008 <b>R2<\/b>. We\u2019re regularly running stress runs on Dan Reed\u2019s 1000 node cluster in Microsoft Research, teasing out distributed admin issues with virtual machines that turn our own 540 node cluster into a 2000 node <i>s\u00fcper<\/i>-cluster, and using solid state drives to identify database scalability issues. Later this year we\u2019ll do some runs on huge (2000+ node) supercomputers.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin:0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';font-size:11pt;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin:0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';font-size:11pt;\">HPC is becoming part of mainstream computing, and that\u2019s a nice way of saying it can\u2019t fail. We have customers in production and they\u2019ve provided us with a list of great features for our upcoming release. Some of them told us they wanted to use our SOA programming model in mission critical environments. With this CTP we provide the first of many mission critical features, disconnection\/reconnection for SOA workloads. Say you submit a million Monte Carlo simulations to the cluster. In the past you would receive the calculations as they were completed, one by one. With our CTP you could submit from your laptop, disconnect, go home, play with the dog, sleep soundly, and come back in the morning to collect the complete set of results. We\u2019ll have additional mission critical features in our future pre-releases.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin:0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';font-size:11pt;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin:0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';font-size:11pt;\">HPC Server 2008 allowed people who weren\u2019t supercomputing geniuses to set up and run a cluster, easily and quickly. Our CTP includes a number of enhancements to our distributed management infrastructure, including the ability to create custom heat maps and use 3<sup>rd<\/sup> party reporting tools.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin:0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';font-size:11pt;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin:0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';font-size:11pt;\">Using a cluster should be as easy as using any other network resource. Just like you can connect to a network printer and print jobs, you should be able to connect to a cluster, submit a computationally challenging job, and get the results. Our improved job scheduler includes a number of customer requested features including job progress and pre\/post tasks. Pre\/post tasks are cool because you can use them to set up and tear down compute nodes. Say you\u2019re doing a bunch of genomic searches. With pre-tasks you could stage parts of the genomic database across your compute nodes, run your searches in parallel, and then clean up when you\u2019re finished. Hey, it\u2019s a simple map\/reduce system.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin:0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';font-size:11pt;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin:0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';font-size:11pt;\">Finally, we\u2019re about to ship a new toolpack and it has our favorite new tool: Lizard. Lizard is a tuning wizard for the Linpack benchmark (get the name???). If you\u2019re a Top500 geek you\u2019ll love this tool. Using a set of parametric sweeps we identify the best input parameters for Linpack, helping you get a killer Linpack benchmark score. Oh, and it\u2019s called Lizard. Did we mention the name? Hmmm\u2026 What could we call a GPU tuning wizard\u2026<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin:0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';font-size:11pt;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin:0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';font-size:11pt;\">Back to the CTP. HPC is all about scale, performance, and applications. With this CTP we start with scale, and this Fall we\u2019ll demonstrate performance as well as some exciting improvements to help application developers, from the Python\/Excel users to MPI programmers and everyone in between.<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"margin:0in 0in 0pt;\"><span style=\"font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';font-size:11pt;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div
