hi greg,
i meant the ds-nodes, as in /net/ds-02/scratch-1.  how can we find which
ds-nodes are local to a particular aces room?

hello billboos-

the ao-nodes do have more ram than the
geo-nodes, which have faster busses (i think i remember that correctly). 

as far as scratch-disks are concerned, kinda means what you mean. 

each compute-node has a local /scratch
partition. this is the leftover of every root drive.

if you mean the ds-nodes, then that's an order of magnitude different. true,
they are all distinct machines, but they are located in the several
aces-rooms across campus. locality, then, may affect performance.

which do you mean ?
