The current supercomputers are almost achieving the petaflop level. These machines present a high number of interruptions in a relatively short time interval. Fault tolerance and preventive maintenance are key issues in order to enlarge the MTTI (Mean Time To Interrupt). In this paper we present how RADIC, a architecture for fault tolerance, provides different protection levels able to avoid system interruptions and allows the performance of preventive maintenance tasks. Our experiments show the effectiveness of our solution in order to keep a high availability with a large MTTI. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
