Ooble

How do you find that? Does it support .NET 2.0 well?

Hi Infinite Recursion,

I have worked in environments which had beowulf clusters, but no I never managed or configured these clusters. I mainly consulted as a Windows Systems Engineer. Any place I've worked which had a Windows and Linux mix, there was always a senior Linux admin who did the Linux task while I focused on the Windows environment and did the Windows task. With that said, I did do cross-platform support, where I would do installs, configurations, and management of Linux machines as well as Windows machines, but I never was a senior or deemed Linux admin, I was primarily a Windows admin with a splash of Linux

In any event, I couldn't see why I wouldn't be able to configure a beowulf cluster. If I understand it right, its simply a clustered environment acting as a single node. I've configured RedHat GFS before, which is probably quite different from a beowulf cluster but has similar traits as the GFS allows a cluster to share data in a common storage area virtually acting as a single node file system.

@lectricpharaoh: The project is in a hold status at the moment, I have the hardware, just need to link it all together. I had to rush a few more projects to the front, so the cluster got put on the backburner, unfortunately. I hope to pick it up again soon.

@Ooble: The link for mod_mono can be found here --
http://www.mono-project.com/ASP.NET It supports .NET 2.0 as well via the XSP2 web server (Apache spoons the workload over to XSP2 I believe). The only problem so far was getting it to work with C# WebParts... which is not yet supported. Its good stuff man, check it out.

@RemoteGurus: Sounds good man. I was asking primarily because I was in the process of building a beowulf clutser myself not too long ago. I was trying it out with some cheap hardware to get the logic down right, before I spent a large sum of money for faster equipment. I'm really still trying to determine what I would run on it, so I suppose thats why I have not been in a hurry to complete the process. hah.
