Terascale Clusters: Experiences and Challenges
Greg Lindahl,HPTI
Many of us wonder if commodity clusters can scale large enough to attack
the biggest problems. Terascale systems have significant problems which
are not present in smaller systems. Reliability, systems administration,
usability, and I/O are all much more difficult problems than in a 64 cpu
cluster. This talk will explore the challenges of terascale systems, and
will relate experiences with the 800 Gigaflop Forecast Systems Lab
AlphaLinux cluster, and Sandia National Labs CPlant cluster.

Subject: Xforge 0.2.0 - a wave editor
Date: Sun, 7 Jan 2001 17:48:05 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Xforge 0.2.0, a graphical wave editor, is available.
Xforge needs X11R5 on Unix, Motif (Lesstif also works but you may have
some problems), and OSS compatible audio drivers for audio output.
Version 0.2.0 compiles and runs on (with or without audio support):
o AIX 4.3.1.0 (rs6000)
o Digital Unix 4.0 (alpha)
o FreeBSD 2.2.6-RELEASE (i386)
o HP-UX 10.20 (parisc)
o IRIX 6.3 (mips)
o SuSE Linux 6.3 (alpha)
o NetBSD 1.4.2 (sparc)
o Solaris 2.5.6 (sparc)
o Unixware 7.0.1 (i386)
Xforge source is available on the Xforge web site:

Subject: fget-1.0 - command line FTP mirroring tool
Date: Sun, 7 Jan 2001 17:40:39 GMT
Reply-To: roth+fget@uiuc.edu
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
I am pleased to announce the release of fget-1.0.
fget is a commandline tool for mirroring remote files via FTP. It is
designed as an FTP analog of the GNU wget utility, which was designed
to do WWW mirroring and is not optimized for FTP.
The fget program is based upon the included FTP client library, whose
API is designed to resemble the normal Unix API for accessing files
and directories. This interface should make it very easy to integrate
FTP support into other applications.
The fget package is available from:
http://www-dev.cso.uiuc.edu/fget/
Enjoy!

Hello,
I'd like to invite you to visit my new website. I might be useful for
everybody who work and/or is interested in chemistry, biochemistry,
genetics, molecular biology and so.
Linux4Chemistry:
http://zeus.polsl.gliwice.pl/~nikodem/linux4chemistry.html
The goal of this website is to provide with the most up-to-date links to the
chemical software running on linux. Because the field is still under an
intensive development, the website will also be continuously under
construction and you may even find some not-up-to-date URLs there for this
same reason. In that case contact me, please.
I hope it will be helpful to you. You are very welcome to send me your
commends, new URLs and so on.
You are very welcome to visit my Linux4Chemistry website!

PROCMETER V3.3
==============
The ProcMeter program itself is a framework on which a number of modules
(plugins) are loaded. More modules can be written as required to perform more
monitoring and informational functions.
The statistics that are displayed are grouped by module, with a menu allowing
selection of module and a sub-menu for each output available for that module.
APM
Advanced Power Management information. These outputs are only available
if you have configured the kernel to have the APM feature.
Biff
Monitors the e-mail inbox (in /var/spool/mail/<username> or
/var/mail/<username>) and indicates the number of e-mails that are
waiting and the size.
Date_Time
The current date and time and the amount of time since the system was
last booted.
DiskUsage
Shows the percentage of the disk that is used and the amount of free
space for each of the local disks that it finds are mounted or can be
mounted when the program starts.
LogFile
Monitors the size and number of lines and the rate of increase of these
in a set of log files.
Memory
The amount of memory that is used for programs, buffers, cache and the
amount that is free.
Network
The network devices and the amount of traffic on each of them. It will
automatically pick up available devices when it starts.
Processes
The load average and the number of processes running and starting.
ProcMeter
Information about the procmeter program itself.
Sensors
Hardware sensors for temperature and fan speed. (Requires lm78 hardware
and kernel patch from http://www.netroedge.com/~lm78/).
Statistics
Low level system statistics. For example CPU usage, disk usage,
swapping and paging.
Stat-CPU
Statistics about individual CPU usage including support for SMP
machines.
Stat-Disk
Statistics about individual disk usage including support for up to 4
disks.
Stat-Intr
Statistics about individual interrupts including support for up to 32
interrupts.
Uname
The system information from the uname program, hostname and Linux kernel
version.
