Abstract
In preparation for Summit, Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s next generation supercomputer, two IBM Power-based systems were deployed in late 2016 at the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility (OLCF). This paper presents a detailed description of the acceptance of the first IBM Power-based early access systems installed at the OLCF. The two systems, Summitdev and Tundra, contain IBM POWER8+ processors with NVIDIA Pascal GPUs and were acquired to provide researchers with a platform to optimize codes for the Power architecture. In addition, this paper presents early functional and performance results obtained on Summitdev with the latest software stack available.
