Abstract :
Summary form only given. This tutorial addressed in detail all the design and implementation issues related to building HA Linux Beowulf clusters and using Linux and open source software as the base technology. In addition, the focus of the tutorial is HA-OSCAR. We present the architecture of HA-OSCAR, review of new features of the current release, explain how we implemented all the HA features, and discuss our experiments covering performance and availability, as well as our test results.
