Title: High performance storage system at Sandia National Labs

Conference ·
OSTI ID:231222

Scientific computing centers are acquiring large, distributed memory machines. With memory systems of .25 to 2.5 terabytes, these machines will deliver 1-10 teraflop computing capabilities. The need to move 10`s or 100`s of gigabytes, and the need to provide petabyte storage systems are issues that must be addressed before the year 2000. Work currently underway at Sandia addresses these issues. The High Performance Storage System (HPSS) is in limited production and the mass storage environment to support Sandia`s teraflop computer system is being constructed. 26 refs., 5 figs.
