Tests 1.1 - 1.4 test performance scaling over multple nodes over the low-latency network. The following results were obtained for the current cluster (2 x Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6140 CPU @ 2.30GHz per node).
** Minimal required performance** for passing the test:
For each job, the results for the same number of nodes with the number of cores per node restricted to 36 should be at least higher than 80% of the value obtained with our older aurum cluster, in the table above.
**The following description/conditions apply to tests 1.1 through 1.4**
-**Short description of the test**: Full (36 cores max) occupation of the computational nodes using 1 or more nodes per job. There might be few unallocated nodes if the number of computational nodes is not a multiple of number of computational nodes per job in each task.
-**Storage for tasks:** This test must try all 5 different NFS shares in storage1, storage2, scratch1, scratch2, cryo2.
-**Number of computational nodes per job in each task:** $N^{\text{scaling\_test\_cpu}}_{\text{task,job}}$ = [1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18 and 20] Nodes.
The results for the same number of nodes with the number of cores per node restricted to 36 should be at least higher than 80% of the value obtained with our older aurum cluster.
