These are links to some of the freely available software needed to transform raw hardware into a working cluster.
Warewulf is a scalable systems management suite originally developed to manage large high-performance Linux clusters. Focused on general scalable systems management, it includes a framework for system configuration, management, provisioning/installation, monitoring, event notification, and more via a modular plugin architecture.
Perceus/Warewulf is a Linux cluster solution that is scalable, flexible and easy to use. Managing and distributing Linux systems to any number of nodes is simple and less time consuming.
oneSIS is an open-source software package aimed at simplifying diskless cluster management. It is a simple NFS method for deploying and managing a system image for diskless systems that can turn any supported Linux distribution into a cluster OS.
Rocks is a cluster distribution
OSCAR (Open Source Cluster Application Resources) is a snapshot of the best known methods for building, programming, and using HPC clusters. It consists of a fully integrated and easy to install software bundle designed for high performance cluster c
Parallel I/O continues to be a topic of active development. Recent years have seen the creation of many new options. Even with these new choices, certain factors remain constant. Parallel applications need a fast I/O subsystem. Clusters need a parall
The goal of the Parallel Virtual File System (PVFS) Project is to explore the design, implementation, and uses of parallel I/O. PVFS serves as both a platform for parallel I/O research as well as a production file system for the cluster computing com
