As a matter of fact, that thread also contains survey results from I believe the supercomputing conference, and maybe other places, to show what other people are using. I am using Warewulf on our clusters. Support for CentOS 7 is preproduction at the moment, but they are planning a release any day now I believe. There is a final push of testing that was recently announced. I am using it anyway, with the only ill effects being some misplaced warning messages. Our clusters also make very small use of xCAT, mostly because that is what IBM/Lenovo uses for certain things. My feel is that it is significantly more featureful, at the cost of complexity to configure. =R=
