    2323==== hardware accelerated rendering (OpenGL)

    2425Whenever an OpenGL capable visualization software, like !VisIt, is started on the remote cluster node, OpenGL commands can be redirected to the GPU of this node with the help of [http://www.virtualgl.org VirtualGL] (using the command 'vglrun'). This way the hardware accelerated rendering capabilities of a cluster node (if available) can be exploit for remote rendering. (attention: __without__ VirtualGL software, rendering using the CPU instead of the GPU must be used (if available), which is much slower).

    126 The availability of remote visualization, either implemented within visualization applications themselves, or through server software, eliminates the need for off-site file transfers and allows HPC users to run a broad range of visualization tools in-place on the supercomputer where the data resides.
