Abstract

Open XDMoD is an open source tool designed to facilitate the management of high-performance computing (HPC) systems. The Open XDMoD portal provides a rich set of analysis and charting tools that let users quickly display a wide variety of job accounting metrics over any desired timeframe. Two additional tools, which provide quality-of-service metrics and job-level performance data, have been developed and integrated with Open XDMoD to extend its functionality. These tools, combined in an integrated package through Open XDMoD, enable the comprehensive management of HPC resources, allowing HPC center personnel to ensure that the resource is operating efficiently and to determine what applications are running, how efficiently they're running, and what resources they're consuming, all of which are important to optimizing the HPC system.
