I should mention that we set the osimage for nodes via groups, not directly on the nodes, so on two of our HPC clusters we've just got a single "compute" group that covers all nodes and on the one other we've got "phi" and "nophi" groups. The data infrastructure one has groups for NSD servers connected to IB vs FC storage, TSM servers, HSM (TSM-SM) servers, GPFS-NFS cluster servers, etc but those are all more traditional stateful installs (kickstart installs all scripted via xCAT). cheers, Chris -- Christopher Samuel Senior Systems Administrator Melbourne Bioinformatics - The University of Melbourne Email: sam...@unimelb.edu.au Phone: +61 (0)3 903 55545 _______________________________________________ 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
