You could probalby use an old netbook, but more memory and cores are better. Faster CPUs will provide better responsivness.
Quoting Louis Capps <[email protected]>:
Hi, We are looking at using SLURM for a large 6000 node cluster and need more info on the support systems. Can you point me to a sizing guide or info on the requirements for the primary and backup controllers for SLURM including CPU, memory and local disk requirements?
