I'm particularly interested in what people are using for diskless |
| 12 |
nodes and managing upgrades of system images across the cluster. I'm |
| 13 |
envisioning a system where I have a build environment in which I can |
| 14 |
upgrade system software and test functionality on a development |
| 15 |
machine and then take a snapshot of the system and copy that up to a |
| 16 |
NAS device so that the nodes can then boot it. It would be even |
| 17 |
better if I could specify which packages I wanted (or rather, didn't |
| 18 |
want) on the system images so that I could avoid having un-necessary |
| 19 |
and potentially attacker-friendly packages such as gcc and portage on |
| 20 |
the cluster nodes. |
