This is associated with AWS ParallelCluster v2.10.1

ENHANCEMENTS

• Install Arm Performance Libraries (APL) 20.2.1 on ARM AMIs (CentOS8, Alinux2, Ubuntu1804).
• Install EFA kernel module on ARM instances with alinux2 and ubuntu1804.
• Configure NFS threads to be max(8, num_cores) for performance. This enhancement will not take effect on Ubuntu 16.04.

CHANGES

• Upgrade EFA installer to version 1.11.1.
  • EFA configuration: efa-config-1.7 (from efa-config-1.5)
  • EFA profile: efa-profile-1.3 (from efa-profile-1.1)
  • EFA kernel module: efa-1.10.2 (no change)
  • RDMA core: rdma-core-31.2amzn (from rdma-core-31.amzn0)
  • Libfabric: libfabric-1.11.1amzn1.0 (from libfabric-1.11.1amzn1.1)
  • Open MPI: openmpi40-aws-4.1.0 (from openmpi40-aws-4.0.5)
• Upgrade Intel MPI to version U8.
• Upgrade NICE DCV to version 2020.2-9662.
• Set default systemd runlevel to multi-user.target on all OSes during ParallelCluster official ami creation.
  The runlevel is set to graphical.target on head node only when DCV is enabled. This prevents the execution of
  graphical services, such as x/gdm, when they are not required.
• Download Intel MPI and HPC packages from S3 rather than Intel yum repos.

BUG FIXES

• Fix installation of Intel PSXE package on CentOS 7 by using yum4.
• Fix routing issues with multiple Network Interfaces on Ubuntu 18.04.
• Fix compilation of SGE by downloading sources from Debian repository and not from the EOL Ubuntu 19.10.
