Kris,
I don't know of any books specifically, but there is a book from MIT Pres=
s for Beowulf Clusters (I don't recall the exact title). There are some =
tools like bWatch that allow you to view utilization of clusters. Also, =
Sun's Grid Engine is a tool that administers Beowulf clusters for sharing=
amongst many users; I haven't looked at it in great detail, but it does =
appear to have some tools available.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
John

Subject: [Bioclusters] resources on administering clusters
What do people find good resources (books, websites, tools) to learn
more about administering a compute cluster. I'm not looking for general
unix sysadmin (been doing this for 10 years), but stuff which comes into
play when administering large numbers of machines.
I looked at the biobluster install diary Chris posted a few days ago,
but was wondering if people know of other resources.
Kris,
