I am new to the Beowulf cluster scene of Linux, and was about to try |
| 2 |
to set up a cluster in my basement. My question for the gurus here is |
| 3 |
what angle should I go for a heterogeneous cluster of machines? Like |
| 4 |
Openmosix, or whatnot. Here are some system specifics |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
The front-end node node will be a 667 mhz Pentium 3, 64 mb of RAM, and |
| 7 |
20 gig hard disk. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
Another machine, node 1 will be a 350 mhz Pentium 2, 110 mb of RAM, |
| 10 |
and a 5 gig hard disk. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Final node is just about identical to node 1 except it has 64 mb of RAM. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
I know this is not a high performance cluster by any means, but I |
| 15 |
would like to try and make a cluster, and I like Gentoo's flexibility, |
| 16 |
but need to know if it is the best for my cluster setup. |

Any opinions appreciated! |
