Open XDMoD

Description

Open XDMoD

XDMoD (XD Metrics on Demand) is a U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF) funded open source tool designed to audit and facilitate the utilization of the XSEDE cyberinfrastructure by providing a wide range of metrics on XSEDE resources, including resource utilization, resource performance, and impact on scholarship and research. The XDMoD framework is designed to meet the following objectives:

  1. Provide the user community with a tool to manage their allocations and optimize their resource utilization,
  2. Provide operational staff with the ability to monitor and tune resource performance,
  3. Provide management with a tool to monitor utilization, user base, and performance of resources, and
  4. Provide metrics to help measure scientific impact.

While initially focused on the XSEDE program, Open XDMoD has been created to be adaptable to any HPC environment.

For more information, including information about additional Open XDMoD capabilities provided as optional modules, please visit the Open XDMoD website.

Modules for Open XDMoD

In addition to the analysis functionality provided by the main Open XDMoD package, Open XDMoD also supports extending its capabilities through modules. The XDMoD team currently supports the modules below.

Application Kernels

This module enables analysis of "application kernels", which are regression tests for the performance of an HPC system and the software that runs on it. For more information, visit the Application Kernels Module website and repository.

SUPReMM

This module enables analysis of individual and aggregate job performance using hardware data from CPUs, memory, filesystems, network interfaces, and more. For more information, visit the SUPReMM Module website and repository.

Installation

Prebuilt packages of Open XDMoD are available as releases on GitHub. Packages for Open XDMoD modules are available as releases in their respective repositories.

See the installation instructions on the Open XDMoD website for additional information.
