Not really the limit. We have ~300 nodes (300x8 cores) and they are all maintained "diskful" (if I understand the usage correctly). i.e. They each have a local disk for the OS and scratch space. Of course, the OS image are all essentially identical and installation is automated via PXE. -- Rahul _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
