I just took a job as a systems programmer on a Linux cluster running Platform, the commercialized version of ROCKS. I decided to carefully document/automate the process of building a FreeBSD cluster by doing it all with a script from the very beginning. The script is in http://personalpages.tds.net/~jwbacon/Ports/distfiles/cluster-installer-0.1.tar.gz There's also a port framework to install it in my collection. Some might argue that this takes the fun out of building a cluster, and I might agree. However, I think a script is the best kind of documentation for installations, and you don't have to run it. I also find it handy for quickly adding a node when I find another PC on the curb. ;-) -J Enrique Fynn wrote: > I've never worked with BSD clusters to be honest neither with rocks, but > some time ago I was interested and now I can be back to do so... > I will be in touch in my vacations. > Att; > Enrique Fynn. > -- > Artificial intelligence laboratory > Federal University of Uberlândia > "Society, you're a crazy breed...
