That's pretty open ended. So you want to know how to install software on an existing cluster? It's not really any different than any collection of servers. If you mean how do I install a cluster... depends... what are you trying to do? The very nature of a cluster is hard to pin down without first trying to figure out what the cluster is trying to do. If you want a cluster linux distribution Rocks (http://www.rocksclusters.org/) isn't a terrible place to start. They cover many common usage cases, virtualization, visualization, traditional hpc, etc. > I am a biologist and I > know how to get stuff to work on stand-alone machines but clusters, I have no Mostly clusters add a network file system and in some cases a batch queue. It's mostly the same pieces as any normal collection of linux servers. > idea.

I'm not sure about a tutorial, hard to present any material where the space of possible topics to discuss is huge. Any single batch queue (of dozens) could easily take a week, different communication layers like MPI, network filesystems, parallel filesystems, virtualization, etc. > As always, thank you very much in advance for your help, > > Cheers! > Alfredo > ------------------------------ > Best Regards > Alfredo Lopez De Leon > Novozymes, Inc. > 1445 Drew Ave > Davis CA 95618 United States > _______________________________________________ > vox-tech mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
