No, I have not looked at this stuff, but it sounds great! Glad to hear that this stuff is already in the works.

I'll pass it on.

I think that's the goal here -- it would be nice if some kind of gui
(even a web-based thingy) could do some of these common tasks

relevant nodes."

Have you guys looked at Erich's NetBootMgr in trunk?  Basically it's a
Qt GUI which lets you select whether you want nodes to boot from local
disk, re-load image, memtest or any other arbitrary operations (the
nodes need to always network boot for this to work).  Right now it's
quite simple but I could see it growing into a general purpose
management GUI (not sure if that's what Erich wants though ;-) ).

In the future if we integrate IPMI with it, re-imaging can be really
trivial - just select the nodes you want to re-image, change their boot
settings and select "reboot" for them - done.

Cheers,

Bernard
