Subject: Tutorial Workshop on System Configuration and LCFG
Reply-To: Chris Cooke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
The University of Edinburgh is holding a one day tutorial workshop
on System Configuration and LCFG on 13 June 2007.
"System Configuration" is the process of transforming a collection
of raw hardware and software into an integrated "system" which
continuously and correctly serves a specific function - for example
a computing "cluster" or a student laboratory. LCFG is one tool
which helps to automate this process.
The workshop will introduce the underlying principles of system
configuration, and will show how LCFG can be used to help automate
the process. Throughout the day talks will be interspersed with
hands-on sessions including the creation of new components, as well
as the configuration of real systems, using components provided
with the LCFG distribution. You will also be shown how to extend
LCFG for your own site and given some pointers on starting an LCFG
installation.
To get the most from the day you should ideally have some
experience of system administration, especially on Unix-like
systems, and of scripting in either Shell or Perl.
The presenters will be Paul Anderson, Kenneth MacDonald, Stephen
Quinney and Alastair Scobie.
