[gmx-users] Clustermatic

[Jason DeJoannis]

Dear All, 
 
 Does anyone have experience installing Clustermatic? 
If so did you encounter any hitches when using Gromacs? 
Our 9-node cluster currently uses Scyld Beowulf and  
Redhat 7. PME doesn't work in parallel. I have tested 
the bproc version of mpich that is installed and it works 
fine for the calculation of Pi.  
 
  I would like to install Redhat 8 with Clustermatic 3  
to make the system more up-to-date. Redhat 8 has the new  
glibc, which is important. Lots of things don't work with  
the older glibc - such as the recent edition of LAM which  
has bproc support. 
 
 From searching the mailing list it seems to me that there 
is very little mention of Beowulf/bproc clusters. Does 
that mean that most of you are using clusters with RSH  
and independent nodes? 
 
 -Jason
