The content of this report reflect work in progress during Fiscal Year 1998. The SP2 Pilot Project was launched in March 1998 as a way to bootstrap the DISCOM2 Distance Computing Program. The Pilot was directed towards creating an environment to allow Sandia users to run their applications on the Accelerated Strategic Computing initiative's (ASCI) Blue Pacific computation platform, the unclassified IBM SP2 platform at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL). The DISCOM2 Pilot leveraged the ASCI PSE (Problem Solving Environment) efforts in networking and Services to baseline the performance of the current system. The key areas of the pilot were: applicaitons, services, networking, visualization, and the system model. This report details not only the running of two Sandia codes CTH and COYOTE on the Blue Pacific platform, but also the building of the Sandia National Laboratories proxy environment of the RS6000 platforms to support the Sandia users.
