Hi, That sounds like a good option.I have a question about beowulf clusters.What if you have 1 of the systems in the cluster down or any network failures.Can make our cluster(2-5 sytems only) work properly. Also what about geographically distant cluster systems.Say 1 in USA and other in India.How do we manage our cluster in mishaps or difficult conditions. lastly, how about having beowulf cluster systems in space.putting 1 pc on each planet or celestial body that we want to track and the server in india. is linux the best choice in such cases...
