Depending on the question, it might go in Installation, or Technical, or Networking maybe.
You can also do a search for Rocks Clusters here. I think I even asked some questions about that a few years ago, although I never followed through with it.
I was just thinking back... I had thought about using Rocks Clusters to cluster a few older computers together to make a folding@home machine. I don't recall all of the details, but somehow 'they' convinced me that the whole folding system was like a big cluster and it didn't support clustering clusters... or something goofy like that.
I was thinking, well, I'm just trying to cluster these computers together and then the folding system should only see it as one computer... but... I never got anywhere with it.
Also, some people argued that clustering is a bit of a moot point these days with the low cost and high power of current systems.
Anyway, that's just what I remember.
