Linux PC Clustering - การทำ Clustering ด้วยคอม เก่า

**วันไหนว่างๆ จะมาแปลให้นะ

In January 1998 Hewlett-Packard and GSI startet a joint project on "Linux PC Clustering". The project is aimed at researching the ideal PC, networking and storage configurations for cluster environments and to collect a set of programs that allow easy administration and monitoring of such clusters.

Hewlett-Packard has a long tradition of providing compute clusters, especially in the scientific and engineering market. Traditionally these clusters consisted of high-end PA-RISC workstations running HP-UX. However, with the arrival of the powerful Intel Pentium Pro and Pentium II CPU's and the coming of age of the Linux (free Unix compatible) operating system, PC's became an excellent, price performance (and even out-right performance) wise, alternative to the good old Unix workstation. In this project we focus on the HP Kayak PC Workstations.

GSI is a national German physics institute specialised in heavy ion physics. Modern, high energy, heavy ion experiments produce incredible amounts of data (several terabytes per week). To process and analyse these amounts of data large compute clusters are needed. Over the years the scientists of GSI have gained a lot of experience in building and operating such clusters. The clusters constructed in this joint project are used to process and analyse the data of the NA49 experiment at CERN (of which GSI is one of the major collaborating partners).
