Definitions
- This invention relates, in general, to heterogeneous computing environments, and in particular, to facilitating the allocation of resources in a heterogeneous computing environment.
- a heterogeneous computing environment includes a plurality of nodes having different architectures and operating systems. For instance, at least one node of the environment is based on a different architecture executing a different operating system than at least one other node of the environment.
- One example of a heterogeneous computing environment is a grid computing environment.
- a grid computing environment includes a number of nodes, such as workstations or servers, that cooperate to solve large computing problems.
- a grid is spread out over a large geographic area.
- Individual nodes that contribute to the grid may have many other alternate purposes - at various times, they may be used as nodes within a cluster or as individual workstations, as well as grid members.
- the decision to make an individual node or group of nodes available to the grid is based on a number of items, including how busy the node is in its non-grid roles, the demand for grid nodes, and the types of resources dedicated to the node.
- These resources such as storage, memory, compute power and file system resources, can be allocated to the greater grid in order to create a powerful, dynami ⁇ problem solving environment.
- the node selected to run the job or a portion thereof is to have the correct version of the operating system and the correct platform architecture (i.e., the correct environment).
- the correct platform architecture i.e., the correct environment.
- the executable files contain machine level instructions which can only run on machines of the same environment. This shortcoming restricts the grid to allocate resources of only those nodes having the same environment as the job to be executed
- FIG. 1 depicts one embodiment of a heterogeneous computing environment incorporating and using one or more aspects of the present invention
- FIG. 2 depicts one example of a cluster that may be employed in the heterogeneous computing environment of FIG. 1, in accordance with an aspect of the present invention
- FIG. 3 depicts one example of a plurality of clusters of a grid computing environment in accordance with an aspect of the present invention
- FIG. 4 depicts one embodiment of a grid computing environment in which the resources available to the grid are restricted
- FIG. 5 depicts one embodiment of the logic associated with providing additional resources to the grid, in accordance with an aspect of the present invention.
- FIG. 6 depicts one embodiment of a grid computing environment in which additional resources are available to the grid for allocation, in accordance with an aspect of the present invention. Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention
- a capability is provided to facilitate allocation of resources in a heterogeneous computing environment.
- the heterogeneous environment includes at least one resource manager that is responsible for determining which nodes of the environment can process a particular request. To make this determination, previously, the resource manager would consider those nodes having the same environment (i.e., architecture and operating system) as the request. Further, as an enhancement, the resource manager could also consider nodes of different generations of the same architecture as the request, as described in co-pending PCT patent application no. PCT/ EP2004/051499 , entitled "Managing Processing Within Computing Environments Including Initiation Of Virtual Machines".
- nodes can be considered that have different native environments than the request. These heterogeneous nodes can be considered, since they are capable of supporting other environments, although their native environments are different than the request.
- the resource manager of the heterogeneous computing environment obtains information from the various nodes in the environment and uses that information to determine which nodes can be used to process a request.
- the information obtained by the resource manager includes attributes relating to the one or more environments (e.g., platforms and operating systems) that are supported by but not native to the nodes. These compatibility attributes are made available to the resource manager to broaden the scope of nodes, and therefore, resources, available to process a specific request.
- the heterogeneous environment is a grid computing environment 100 including for instance, a plurality of user workstations 102 (e.g., laptops, notebooks, such as ThinkPads, personal computers, RS/6000's, etc.) coupled to a job management service 104 via, for instance, the internet, extranet, or intranet.
- Job management service 104 includes, for instance, a web application to be executed on a web ap- ® plication server, such as Websphere offered by IBM , or distributed across a plurality of servers. It has the responsibility for accepting user requests and passing the requests to the appropriate nodes of the environment.
- Job management service 104 is further coupled via the internet, extranet or intranet to one or more data centers 106.
- Each data center includes, for instance, one or more nodes 108, such as mainframes, workstations andor servers.
- the nodes of the environment are heterogeneous nodes in that at least one node is based on a different architecture andbr is executing a different operating system than at least one other node.
- one node may be based on the x86 architecture running a Linux operating system and another node may be based on the PowerPC architecture running ALX.
- a grid computing environment includes a plurality of nodes which cooperate to solve a large computing problem.
- Individual nodes that contribute to the grid may have many other alternate purposes.
- nodes within the grid may be used as individual workstations or form a cluster, an example of which is depicted in FIG. 2.
- a cluster 200 includes, for instance, a set of homogeneous nodes 202, which are managed by a resource manager 204, such as a cluster resource manager.
- the cluster resource manager receives requests from users and is responsible for allocating cluster resources to the individual requests. The manner in which the resources are allocated depends on the requirements (e.g., storage, CPU requirements, etc.) of the request. It is the responsibility of the cluster resource manager to use the resources efficiently to maximize throughput.
- An example of a cluster resource manager is Loadleveler, offered by International Business Machines Corporation, Armonk, New York.
- One or more clusters may be coupled together to form a grid computing environment.
- an additional layer of software is added which allocates nodes to the greater grid, as shown in FIG. 3.
- a grid computing environment 300 includes a job management service, such as a grid resource manager 302, which is coupled to a plurality of cluster resource managers 304 of a plurality of clusters.
- a request is submitted to the grid resource manager, and the grid resource manager is aware of one or more sets of nodes, each of which may have different architectures and operating systems. It is from this pool of architectures and operating systems that the grid resource manager draws on when evaluating available- resources for a grid request.
- a grid request (e.g., a job or a portion thereof) which is a Linux executable compiled for an x86 cluster
- the grid manager only considers the set of nodes that exactly satisfy these conditions to select candidate resources. This shortcoming is illustrated in FIG. 4, wherein a large number of resources might stand idle because of the operating system and architecture constraints of the submitted request.
- a grid resource manager 400 only considers compute nodes 402 coupled to cluster resource manager 404, since the grid resource manager is aware that those nodes have the same environment as the executable to be run. That is, the Linux executable compiled for an x86 cluster can run on those nodes, since they are based on the x86 architecture and are executing the Linux operating system. Nodes 406, managed by a cluster resource manager 408, running an AIX operating system on a PowerPC architecture are not considered for resource allocation, since they are not the same environment as the submitted executable.
- nodes 406 may be considered That is, a capability is provided to enable a grid resource manager to consider additional nodes, if those nodes can support further operating systems and architectures.
- a capability is provided to enable a grid resource manager to consider additional nodes, if those nodes can support further operating systems and architectures.
- one or more nodes of a grid are native to one environment (i.e., have a particular hardware platform and operating system), that they may also be able to support other environments.
- a node that has a native operating environment of PowerPC executing AIX may be able to support an environment of x86 running Linux.
- that node can process requests (e.g., execute programs) that require either environment, as indicated by the request either explicitly or implicitly.
- the request is moved to the other environment. For example, if the request is to run a program, the program, which is written for the native environment, is moved to the other environment.
- One such technique includes using an application programming interface (API).
- Programs access operating system routines, such as reading and writing files, through a series of well defined operating system functions defined in an API.
- a well constructed program written in a high level programming language, such as the C programming language, can easily be ported from one operating system to another if both operating systems support the same API.
- a program written in C with a number of API calls might run on an AIX operating system, but could be ported to run on Linux, if Linux supports the same set of APIs that AIX does. The same could hold true in porting an application from an x86 (Intel 32 bit) platform to a 64 bit platform - if an API is provided, the program should port rather easily.
- APIs are programming interfaces, and require a recompile of code to port the application from one environment to another.
- the same program would require a recompile in a Linux environment, using the Linux APIs, to make the program execute successfully under Linux.
- This concept of forcing a recompile for each program that is ported from one environment to another is time consuming and sometimes, uncovers hidden flaws in the API. Thus, other techniques have been sought.
- ABI Application Binary Interface
- ABI provides a technique of taking an executable from one environment and running it in another environment without recompilation through the use of an emulation software layer or through direct hardware support on a target machine.
- One architecture that uses ABI is the AMD64 architecture, offered by AMD, Sunnyvale, California.
- An example of ABI is described in "Binary Compatibility," http_//gcc.gnu.or bnlinedocs/gcc/ Compatibility.html.
- Nodes that are capable of supporting different architectures, such as those that are ABI capable, are exposed to the grid resource manager, so that the grid resource manager can use this information when allocating tasks to the individual clusters or nodes. This enables a wider group of nodes to become available to the greater grid
- a node such as a workstation
- STEP 500 When a node, such as a workstation, comes online, STEP 500, it provides a set of attributes to its resource manager, such as the cluster resource manager, STEP 502.
- attributes include, as examples, the platform (architecture) of the node; the operating system and operating system level of the node; as well as a set of compatibility attributes, including for instance, any additional operating systems and/br any additional platforms (architectures) supported by the node through, for instance, ABI.
- This information is provided to the cluster resource manager via, for instance, Web Services Calls or Web Services Notifications.
- Web Services Calls or Notifications For instance, an XML document specifying these attributes is transferred to the cluster resource manager using Web Services Calls or Notifications, such as a SOAP call.
- SOAP is described in "SOAP Version 1.2 Part 0: Primer," Nilo Mitra, http:/ ⁇ vww.w3.org/TR ⁇ 003/REC-soap 12-
- the cluster resource manager receives this information and percolates at least the compatibility attributes of the node (e.g., one or more non-native environments that it supports) to the grid resource manager, STEP 504.
- this information is provided to the grid resource manager using a similar mechanism as used to forward the information from a node to the cluster resource manager.
- the compatibility attributes are provided via a Web Services Call, such as a SOAP call, to a Web Service exposed by the grid resource manager.
- a Web Services Call such as a SOAP call
- the grid resource manager then takes these attributes into consideration when allocating resources to a request, STEP 506.
- FIG. 6 depicts a pictorial illustration of the grid resource manager obtaining the compatibility attributes, such that the grid resource manager can use those attributes in allocating resources.
- compute nodes 600 each have a native environment of AIX and PowerPC, but are x86 and Linux ABI compatible.
- the nodes provide this information to their cluster resource manager 602.
- the cluster resource manager then percolates this information up to grid resource manager 604.
- the grid resource manager can consider nodes 606, as well as nodes 600 when determining how to allocate the resources. For example, it can send queries to managers on nodes 600 and 606 to see if those nodes have the needed resources. If one or more of the nodes have the resources, then at least one of the nodes is selected to process the request.
- a resource manager such as a grid resource manager, obtains information that identifies which nodes in the heterogeneous environment are able to support additional operating systems and platforms. The resource manager then uses this information to determine how to allocate resources. This advantageously expands the number of resources available to the heterogeneous computing environment for a particular request.
- Nodes can be different classes than that described herein (e.g., other than mainframes, workstations or servers) andbr can support different environments. Further, a heterogeneous environment can include a node having the same architecture but a different generation as another node. Additionally, various types of interfaces, other than ABI, may also be used to move jobs to different environments. Moreover, various mechanisms may be used to percolate the compatibility attributes from the nodes to the grid resource manager or other manager.
- the user can be replaced by an automated service or program.
- a single request or job may include multiple jobs that run simultaneously on multiple nodes. This is accomplished similarly to that described above.
- the grid resource manager contacts a plurality of cluster managers and has those managers manage the plurality of requests.
- the environment may include one or more nodes that are partitioned
- one or more aspects of the present invention apply to Plug Compatible Machines (PCM) from Hitachi. Other examples are also possible.
- the present invention enables the harnessing of unutilized compute power which provides immediate economic benefits to an organization that has a large installed base of nodes.
- the present invention can be implemented in software, firmware, hardware or some combination thereof.
- the present invention can be included in an article of manufacture (e.g., one or more computer program products) having for instance, computer usable media.
- the media has therein, for instance, computer readable program code means or logic (e.g., instructions, code, commands, etc.) to provide and facilitate the capabilities of the present invention.
- the article of manufacture can be included as a part of a computer system or sold separately.
- At least one program storage device readable by a machine embodying at least one program of instructions executable by the machine to perform the capabilities of the present invention can be provided
