Hardware
Currently the ATLAS Black Forest Grid consists of a small number of infrastructure servers, 84 worker nodes and three (amount customizable) user-interfaces. The user-interfaces are meant for interactive use only, in particular compiling and debugging software, which is going to be run on the cluster. The worker nodes are accessible through the batch system of user interfaces nodes. In total there are 3200 cores (hyperthreaded where applicable) available.
The exact hardware configuration is listed in the following table.
