hi list
any detailed guide for making beowulf clusters? did a search on google
, but could not find much starter's material, either it's too trivial or
too OHT. say, just want to make 2-node or 3-node cluster with available
network interface cards and 'normal' cables, nothing fancy. sort of
roll-ur-sleeves and hands-on guide. planning to use MPI for message
passing. * jncasr* people , can u extend some help ? have 1-2
application that i want to run ...
would apprciate anyone's help very much
regards
