Hi.

I have set up a very small cluster (2 nodes, 4 processors on each node). I am trying to monitor CPU, memory and network resource usage for it. I have installed Ganglia monitoring tool on it which is quite cool. I now need to deploy a few benchmark HPC(High Performance Computing) C++/MPI applications to benchmark them. The cluster has Ubuntu desktop server installed on it at the moment.

Can anyone please advise how I can get the processors in the nodes to communication with each other and deploy the application so all 8 processors work together to compute the problem?

I have been advised I may need to write a synchronization code which I have no idea how to do (total newbie programmer!) or I should look for a job scheduler?

I came across the following list of free software but I really don't know which is the most appropriate to what I need to do.

Download Free Windows Clustering Open Source Software - SourceForge

Can someone please advise?
