Sorry to ask this question here, but is anyone familiar with
discussion lists around IBM power systems(p5 575), and in particular
their cluster solution? I have been trying for several days

I don't know why you think this is off-topic, we run a cluster of IBM
OpenPOWER 720's (184 cores of Power 5) running SuSE SLES 9.
We use IBM's CSM for this (as well as on our IBM Cluster 1350 of x335's).
Web page for it is here:
http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/clusters/software/csm.html
There used to be a mailing list for CSM users, but they closed it down and
replaced it with a web based forum(!) which I've never looked at - it is here
if you are feeling masochistic:
http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/forums/dw_forum.jsp?forum=907&cat=53
At least I no longer get the hordes of broken Notes out-of-office responders
replying to me every time I post..
cheers,
Chris
Thanks for the pointers. My customer recently purchased a pSeries p5
575 cluster (8 node, 8 dual-core sockets) with GPFS, HPS, and AIX. It
is a very standard IBM configuration, and it doesn't really run yet.
They have 2 of the eight nodes dedicated as GPFS IO servers (seems like
a waste) and they never bothered to suggest my client gets a home
filesystem setup (ugh). I am trying to quickly re-engineer things to
get the system usable.
Craig
Thanks,
Craig
