This cluster was created for Dr. Shin Han Shiu for use decoding plant
genomes and other bioinformatics related tasks.Software:
It runs the Rocks clustering distribution that is based on CentOS (which is based on RedHat Enterprise Linux) and is pretty much a cluster on a disk. It contains ganglia for monitoring, MPI and Sun Grid Engine (SGE) for task queuing, pre-configured kickstart server for painlessly building computing nodes, pre-configured dhcp, nfs and other network services, apache, mysql and just about anything else you will need for a cluster.
