| | | | Product Guides | | | | Windows Compute Cluster Server 2003 can be easily and quickly deployed using standard Windows deployment technologies, and additional compute nodes can be added to the compute cluster by simply plugging in the nodes and connecting them. The Microsoft Message Passing Interface (MS-MPI) implementation is fully compatible with the reference MPICH2. Integration with Active Directory enables role-based security for administration and users, and the use of Microsoft Management Console provides a familiar administrative and scheduling interface.

Microsoft Visual Studio is the most widely used integrated development environment (IDE) in the industry, and Visual Studio 2005 includes support for developing HPC applications (for example, parallel debugger).CCS includes an integrated MPI layer based on the industry-standard MPI2 specification, making it easier to port existing parallel applications. |  | System Requirements | | Processor: 64-bit architecture Intel Pentium, or Xeon family with Intel Extended Memory 64 Technology (EM64T) architecture, or AMD Opteron family, AMD Athlon family, or compatibleOperating System: Windows Server 2003 Standard x64 Edition (Head and Compute nodes)Windows Server 2003 Enterprise x64 Edition (Head and Compute nodes)Windows Server 2003 R2 Standard x64 Edition (Head and Compute nodes)Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise x64 Edition (Head and Compute nodes)Windows Server 2003 with Service Pack 1 or 2 or R2 (Remote Components)Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 2 (Remote Components)Windows XP Professional x64 Edition (Remote Components)Hard Disk: 4 GBMemory: 512 MB RAM32 GB RAM MaximumOthers: RAID 0,1,5 may be used as appropriate, although they are not required.For a head node, the Windows Compute Cluster Server 2003 installation process requires a minimum of two volumes: one for the system partition, and one for RIS.Compute nodes only require one volume. All nodes require at least one NIC. If a private network is planned, the head node requires a minimum of two NICs to create a public and private network, depending on the network topology selected.Each node may require more NICs as appropriate in case of public network access or in support of an MPI-based network. |  | License Pricing | | OEM |  | Language Support | | English |  | Compatibility | | Windows Compute Cluster Server 2003 supports up to four processors per server |  | Product Name | | Windows Server 2003 Compute Cluster Edition with Service Pack 2 |  | Product Type | | Operating System |  | Distribution Media/Method | | CD-ROM |  | License Details | | 1-4 Processors |  | Platform Support | | PC |
