Open Source C Clustering Software

m23 is a free software distribution system (license: GPL), that installs (via network, starting with partitioning and formatting) and administrates (updates, adds / removes software, adds / removes scripts) clients with Debian, (X/K)Ubuntu and LinuxMint. It is used for deployment of Linux clients in schools, institutions and enterprises. The m23 server is controlled via a web interface. A new m23 client can be installed easily in only three steps. Group functions and mass installation tools make managing a vast number of clients comfortable. The integration of existing clients (with .deb-based distributions) into the system is possible, too. Client backup and server backup are included to avoid data loss. With the integrated virtualisation software, m23 can create and manage virtual m23 clients, that run on real m23 clients or the m23 server. Scripts and software packages (for installation on clients) can be created directly from the m23 web interface.

biosconfig is a flexible tool to automate CMOS non-volatile store parameter modification.

CIMHA is aimed to create integrated suite to provision and manage HA clusters in virtual environment. It analyzes kernel/hardware health of cluster nodes by using VESPER(linux kernel prober) and migrates the Resources based on probe signals.

CatBox is designed to help experts and amateurs to configure their Linux/FreeBSD/OSX/Solaris-based system in a simple, yet effective way. CatBox is also based on a client-/server-model.

ClusterNFS allows diskless clients to share a single root filesystem by matching "interpreted" file names of the form "/path/filename$$KEY=value$$" with fallback to the original filename. Keys include HOSTNAME, IP, UID, GID, and CLIENT (always matches

Secure local and Network based authentication using pluggable backends which provide authentication and user/groupnames, uidmappings, tokensupport and the lot.

Ka is a set of tools designed to help the installation and later the use/administration of a cluster of PC's under Linux. It currently includes a solution for the parallel installation of Linux on many machines, and tools for deploying data or launching

Lucie enables parallel network installation of large numbers of nodes from one single administration server. It is designed to be scalable and efficient, so a complete Linux cluster can be built from scratch in a short amount of time.

Scalable Cluster Environment (SCE) is a set of interoperable opensource tools that enable users to build and use Beowulf cluster effectively to solve their problems.

NAIS is a free, non-interactive, network automated installation system to install the Debian GNU/Linux operating system on a Beowulf cluster or to automatically setup a cluster of workstations.

Notp is a collection of shell scripts and a simple C daemon that allows the cluster sysadmin to quickly install/update/change the running operating system on a variety of host machines. Used with a scheduler, they provide batch-runtime OS provisioning.
