For local installation, ClusterControl requires a running installation
of the web server Apache (http://www.apache.org) with PHP(Version 4) and
LDAP support, that comes with nearly every Linux distribution, and a local
installation of the queuing system Open Portable Batch System (PBS) which
can be downloaded from http://www.openpbs.org
or Sun Grid Engine (SGE) which is available at http://gridengine.sunsource.net.
If an LDAP-Server is already available for user-management of the cluster
it can be easily integrated by modifying the configuration file. To activate
the monitoring mechanism of ClusterControl a status collecting server-process
must be started on every cluster node. With the adaptation of one well
documented configuration file the installation process is completed. |
