Hi Oscar Users & Developpers,
We are attempting to install OSCARS after unsuccess with ROCKS on our first and mini cluster, which is based on dual opteron (4 nodes) with S2885 Tyan motherboard.
Frontend and nodes are same, except frontend which include 1 SATA RAID card (adaptec 2410SA) and radeon 9600 graphic card.
The Network is ethernet gigabit with a 3COM superstack switch 3812.
We have a storage server in front of the cluster too (Pentium IV with sataraid, OS mandrake 10).
Past week, we try ROCKS V 3.3.0 (x86_64 base) and V 3.2.0 too, but we have bad experience because some device were not recognized, like our adaptec raid card, dvd-rom, and Sata drive. Finally, sata raid card is detected after loading the drive "aacraid-driverdisk-1.1.5-2371-x86_64-rhel3.img" here http://www.adaptec.com/worldwide/support/., but continue to have some trouble with others device and in the node install stage. We have upgraded Xfree toward 4.4.0 too in order to resolve some trouble perhaps with our ati card (frozen screen).
This week, we try OSCAR. I have had some success in the past with Version 2, with Celeron. Firstly, we try Mandrake 10.1 (x86_64) but in evidence, Oscar 4.0 don�t support this distro, like the oscar manual said. Now we try Fedora core 2 x86_64 and i think we will have some success (cause i see some success story in your List, and i hope to find some support with oscar communauty ! ).
Best Regard
