Documentation You can access the SGI Cray online reference manuals for the compilers, message-passing libraries and programming environment on the T3E using your Web browser. As usual, manual pages for specific commands and topics are available via the man command when you are logged into the system. We strongly recommend that you limit your requests to no more than 64 Application PEs. It is bad practice to design an application that requires a specific number of CPUs. The goal is to leverage the scalability of the T3E's design, to write scalable applications that are not tied to a specific number of processors so that the application can be seamlessly ported to a different MPP with a greater or lesser number of PEs without tedious recoding.
Stability is much better now than it was when the system was first delivered.
We will continue to notify you of changes via the message of the day on the T3E and through the System Bulletins page.
