I am happy to announce that the ALINKA company has released a GPL tool for the management and configuration of Linux beowulf-type clusters. ALINKA LCM can be downloaded from <http://www.alinka.com/download.html>
The current version is 1.1.3 and can be considered as a beta release, although some sites use ALINKA LCM v1.1.3 in production. We provide a .deb file that has been tested on slink. ALINKA LCM can replace the nfsroot-0.5.1 that is in ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/project/orphaned/ The alinka-lcm mailing-list has been created for ALINKA LCM users. See <http://www.alinka.com/download.html> for instructions concerning joining or leaving. If you wish to know more about ALINKA LCM, you can read the on-line documentation at <http://www.alinka.com/lcmdoc/alinka-lcm-1.1.html> ALINKA provides software tools for commodity clusters running Linux since August 1999. Customers of ALINKA include the French CEA (Center of Atomic Energy) and public research laboratories. ALINKA also sells a GUI for ALINKA LCM, called ALINKA RAISIN, running from a web browser. <http://www.alinka.com/products.html> The ALINKA company provides commercial support for ALINKA LCM and ALINKA RAISIN.
