Does anyone know what is the detailed plan for building that thing with 200 people in just 1 day? I am very curious to understand what things can be done in parallel, what things are serialized from the point of view of installation, testing and evaluation/assesment. Even monitoring the progress,identifying critical tasks, balancing the workforce, having several B,C plans in case plan A fails. And what is the final target, to run across the entire cluster HPL by the end of the day? What is a day in here a business day or 24hours?
