IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler LoadLeveler is a highly scalable parallel workload execution solution for Grid and High Performance Computing environments. It allows users to run more jobs in less time by matching each job’s processing needs and priority with the available
resources, thereby maximizing resource utilization.
IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler LoadLeveler is ideal for parallel processing of computing intensive workloads in clustered environments such as modeling for financial instruments and markets, oil and gas exploration, aircraft and vehicle simulations, and biomedical, biotechnology and pharmaceutical simulations.
SOLUTIONS BENEFITS
- Helps increase workload velocity into existing parallel
clustered environments
- Can optimize parallel clustered IT resource capacity utilization
- Jobs are executed based on their priority, resource requirements and special instructions and not on the sequence of submission
- Offers flexibility with a complete array of APIs allowing
a high level of site-specific customization
CUSTOMER / INDUSTRY CHALLENGES
- Difficulty increasing the number of simulations processed at any given time due to long processing times
- Difficulty making simulations and models more complex due to strained IT resource capacity and workload processing scalability issues

FEATURES & BENEFITS
- High scalability and high parallel workload throughput
in clustered environments
- Integration into IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler networks through IBM Tivoli Workload Scheduler for Virtualized Data Centers, and integration with other scheduler networks and Grid applications through open interfacing
- Completely distributed program with extensive failover and self-repair capabilities to survive even severe system events, usually without administrator intervention
- Offers job check pointing and suspension with optional job cancellation, hold and re-queue, providing
great flexibility in defining real-time job and resource priority control
