[Sisuite-devel] SystemImager cluster map

[Andrea Righi]

Hi all,

I'd like to point to our new Google Maps like tool to keep track who's
using SystemImager around the world:

http://wiki.systemimager.org/cluster-register/cluster-map.php

We're really interested in this kind of feedback and user experiences in
general, so if you're using SystemImager in your organization, company,
laboratory, school, etc., please, consider to register your cluster on
the map.

A big thank to Bernard that provided the cluster map code used for OSCAR
(http://oscar.openclustergroup.org/cluster-map). There are some small
changes respect to the OSCAR version in order to make it more suitable
for SystemImager.

And a big thank in advance to all the users that'll register their
clusters on the map!

-Andrea

PS suggestions/bugs reporting about the cluster map interface are
welcome as well.

It is a nice feature to have the cluster map. I have a remark the
interface expects one type of node for the whole cluster. At our site
we have different nodes in the same cluster:
- 1850 with 2 cpu's
- 1950 with 2 quad cores

To make it more complicated the memory is also different in the
nodes ;-)

yup! heterogeneous clusters :-P, yes, probably we could change the
interface using a multi-value attribute for CPU-type (and also for
memory), but I wouldn't like to complicate too much the interface or
maybe users will be discouraged. For now I've relaxed the Rmax < Rpeak
constraint, otherwise you cannot register the Rmax value when you use a
custom label for CPU type (and IMHO your "CPU_type_1 and CPU_type_2"
syntax it's simple and express very well the concept).

Thanks Bas!
