Look in the Ports tree, category net: /usr/ports/net/clusterit-1.2 (bunch of clustering tools, maintainer dima@chg.ru) /usr/ports/net/mpich-1.1.2 Message Passing Interface, MPI /usr/ports/net/pvm-3.4.7 Parallel Virtual Machine It is my understanding that MPI is the most useful tool, but I can be wrong. Anyway, here are some links which can be of interest for you (in Russian): http://www.csa.ru/~il/mpi_tutor http://www.csa.ru/CSA/tutor/index.htmr http://www.csa.ru/CSA/SCList_mf.htmr http://parallel.ru/ > >When i comes to writing such software myself which would be >the best way to interconnect boxes in cluster and connect them >to the main db/filesystem server >1) NFS? >2) SHARED SCSI RAID ? >3) Simple TCP interconnection over local network with home-made transfer daemons? >4) something else? As for filesystem consideration, Coda in /usr/ports/net looks very promising, but I haven't used it > >Artem Koutchine (Артем Кучин) >Sys/Net/Web Admin, Web Designer, Programmer >WWW: http://idesign.pp.ru E-Mail: matrix@chat.ru >No attachments w/o my permission!!! >(Не присылайте файлы без разрешения!!!)
