The Grid Gurus blog was created to assemble some of the folks who have been involved with grid technology since the term was coined and write about the topics of the day as the field continues to evolve. This forum exists to turn that one-way broadcast into a conversation.
The GREDIA research project partly funded by the European Commission has just completed, making available to the Grid community tools that can be used for building and improving Grid applications.
Mentioning just a few we have released:
- APPEA: A user-friendly Grid application development platform
- DRLS: A Distributed Replica Location Service for searching multimedia content, based on P2P overlay networks
- GridTorrent: For multimedia file access and retrieval operations between nodes on the Grid
... and much more!
Hi Guru's,
When installing a UCE(3.2) compute node using the command line switches, you need to provide:
'--bootstrap-server-hostname master.domain.com'
My first question is: where are all the possible locations in which this data stored? I have so far found:
/usr/local/unicluster/sge/default/common/act_qmaster
The next question: How can I ensure that this change cascades throughout the compute node, i.e. which services should be restarted, etc?
The context for this question is running the UCE(3.2) master and compute nodes within Amazon's EC2.
Hi Gurus,
I'd like to setup GridWay on top of the UniCluster grid stack running within Amazon's EC2 - I'll be following the Univa white paper to get the UC Express (3.2?) set up.
Is this crazy/very-difficult/impossible? I suppose I'm currently a little lost about which
Any comments on whether UC 3.2 or 4.0 would be more suitable?
I'm not sure of the extent to which UniCluster issues should/can be raised here....
Anyway, what would be useful is a listing of the components/applications that constitute the UC stack, and well as a manifest of the rpms, etc.
The 6.2 release of the Sun Grid Engine software is now available for download from the Sun Download Center! (The 6.2 courtesy binaries for the Grid Engine open source project aren't available yet. It will probably be another week or two.) You can find more information on my blog: http://blogs.sun.com/templedf/entry/sun_grid_engine_6_2
