ROCKS, Lava

[Jason Bacon]

Hello everybody,

Is anyone aware of ongoing work to port ROCKS or Lava to FreeBSD? I
haven't had any luck finding any info on the net.

Thanks,

Jason

OK, I started it. In case anyone is interested, the framework can be
found tarballed with the rest of my unfinished projects in:

Ciao,

I've never worked with BSD clusters to be honest neither with rocks, but
some time ago I was interested and now I can be back to do so...
I will be in touch in my vacations.

I'm new at this too. I just took a job as a systems programmer on a
Linux cluster running Platform, the commercialized version of ROCKS.

I decided to carefully document/automate the process of building a
FreeBSD cluster by doing it all with a script from the very beginning.
The script is in

http://personalpages.tds.net/~jwbacon/Ports/distfiles/cluster-installer-0.1.tar.gz

There's also a port framework to install it in my collection.

Some might argue that this takes the fun out of building a cluster, and
I might agree. However, I think a script is the best kind of
documentation for installations, and you don't have to run it. I also
find it handy for quickly adding a node when I find another PC on the
curb. ;-)
