| Software for Linux
Clustering:
Arla: Arla
is a free AFS implementation. AFS is a distributed filesystem
that enables co-operating hosts (clients and servers) to efficiently
share filesystem resources across both local area and wide area
networks.
BProc: BProc, The
Beowulf Distributed Process Space, is a set of kernel modifications,
utilities, and libraries which allow a user to start processes on
other machines in a Beowulf-style cluster. Remote processes started
with this mechanism appear in the process table of the front end
machine in the cluster.
Clunix: The clunix tools are a free, GPL'd set of utilities
for managing a Linux cluster. The components are a perl based load
balancer, a php based web interface for monitoring the state of the
cluster, and a daemon.
Torque:
Torque (the Terascale Open-source Resource QUEue manager) is a
resource manager based on OpenPBS that provides control over batch
jobs and distributed compute nodes.
Linux
Terminal Server Project (LTSP): The LTSP is a way to run
thin client computers in a Linux environment.
Paradyn: Paradyn
is a tool for measuring the performance of sequential, distributed,
and parallel programs. It can monitor large, long running programs and
provides facilities for helping to automatically find performance
problems in complex parallel programs.
System
Installation Suite: The System Installation Suite is the grand
project name for the joint effort of System Configurator, SystemImager,
and System Installer. All three are being developed to work together
to provide an easy to use solution for installing and configuring a
cluster of heterogenous hardware and to be distibution agnostic. This
is the project homepage, with links to the sites of the three
projects, and more information on how they will work together.
