* Splitting up nfsroot and hpc-clustering profiles until catalyst starts using ↵HEADmasterEric Thibodeau2008-10-2725-0/+100
| | | | overlayed profiles (new 2008 portage feature)
* Enabled threads for openmpi since it's meaning has changed, the USE flag ↵Eric Thibodeau2008-10-271-1/+1
| | | | should have no effect in any case since the threading is detected at build time (see openmpi Changelog for details)
* Switch to acceptong >=dhcpcd 4.0x instead of specific versionEric Thibodeau2008-10-271-1/+1

* Not usedEric Thibodeau2008-10-271-1/+0
|
* Added net-misc/ethercard-diag along with wol since it's more flexible ↵Eric Thibodeau2008-10-273-0/+4
| | | | (permits NIC selection for sending the WOL packets)
* 2.6.25 kernel config file:Eric Thibodeau2008-10-271-0/+2383
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Added (mostly as modules): - RTC - openib - some profiling and probing options * Rationale, this kernel is most likely going to be used on a small cluster for dev purposes and these options, although they might add overhead, are very useful for performance collection. Removed most options which are mostly useless in cluster (though not an exhaustive cleanup): - ISDN - Joystick, graphics and desktop-ish stuff ...more...
* Switch to gentoo-sources 2.6.25 kernel branchEric Thibodeau2008-10-271-2/+1

* LiveCD-HOWTO: Documentation update to reflect latest portage changesEric Thibodeau2008-10-202-13/+30
| | | | TODO: Notes on nfsroot image creation
* - added openldap to overlay to isolate shadow dependency during catalyst ↵Eric Thibodeau2008-10-1718-6/+1260
| | | | | | | build (user/groupadd issue), see bug #53269 - include nfsroot_stage4-slim.spec in this commit - remove threads from the openmpi USE flags (USE flag changed to mpi-threads)

| | | | Re-arrange nfs exportfs generation into function calls (cleaner and more versatile)

* Diradm did not honor the HOMEDIRECTORY variable and ignored the ↵Eric Thibodeau2008-08-224-2/+102
| | | | | | | | USER_AUTOMOUNTHOME=no - git version of diradm is corrected but not in the portage tree so I created a patch for local usage NOTE: Another bug remains. The UID auto-incrementor doesn't seem to work (BUG)
* A script which is an example of the sequence used to create the minimal ↵Eric Thibodeau2008-08-221-0/+28
| | | | | | LiveCD (no X) - The script does assume the environment is up and functionnal as per LiveCD-HOWTO
* Pull out most of config_ssh() into it's own stand-alone scriptEric Thibodeau2008-08-221-27/+14
| | | | | | | | | - it's to be called by users to set up passwordless login to the nodes A simple call to /usr/sbin/setup-pwdless-ssh and it works NOTES: - No claims are made to this approache's security - Placement of the script in /usr/sbin is questionnable since regular users don't have that in their regular $PATH
* Trigger callbacks no the existance of DNSMASQ_USER_CLASS0 rather than $#Eric Thibodeau2008-08-221-3/+3

* Finally get quoting right for generating /etc/conf.d/netEric Thibodeau2008-08-211-3/+3
| | | | | * Thanks goes to all Gurus on #gentoo-base: -- dleverton, Uberlord and igli ;)
* Hardcoding the mounting of /home on the nodes until we implement autofs ↵Eric Thibodeau2008-08-211-1/+3
| | | | controlled via LDAP
* DHCP callback script corrections and config file generation correctionsEric Thibodeau2008-08-216-22/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - cluster-setup: *$PBS_SERVER_HOME/server_priv/nodes is now generated by the ebuild */etc/init.d/pbs_sched start added - nfsroot_setup.sh: * /etc/conf.d/net was not generated correctly, vars were interpreted during the config file generation and no put into the config file - beowulf-head-0.1.ebuild: * There were still some nonfsv4 incorrect USE flags - node-manager: * logic rework and some test corrections * less implcit mangling of $@ on function calls - torque-add: * we need to restart pbs_server on modifying $PBS_SERVER_HOME/server_priv/nodes ** this is horrible but the only reliable way to add nodes as per http://www.clusterresources.com/wiki/doku.php?id=torque:3.1_adding_nodes
* Missing/mistyped nonfsv4 USE flag in spec filesEric Thibodeau2008-08-204-4/+11
| | | | - Also added a note about the futer integration of empi for multiple mpi implementations.
* Removed unused functionsEric Thibodeau2008-08-201-22/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | - kernel_links: now performed by genkernel - setup_services: renamed to setup_ssh Corrected: - openrc_diskless_setup: removed np= from userclass, problematic and not realy useful to send np= as all we really need is the core count. Cleaned up comments in - unionfs_prep
* Added a few features that will come in handy for codersEric Thibodeau2008-08-193-2/+6
| | | | | | | - gvim - cscope NOTE: The livecd won't build because of (snapshot change) Bug 233337 and probably others...
* Torque integration tweaksEric Thibodeau2008-08-194-3/+7
| | | | | | | - server USE flag was mnissing in the livecd specs - added pbs_mom to nfsroot spec NOTE: code is not "functionnal", node-manager is in constant flux as I am figuring out dhcpcd and dnsmasq exhanges of userclass information, which we will use as a means to send the cpu count to the server for the config gilse
* Corrected /etc/conf.d/net configuration to send processor count as ↵Eric Thibodeau2008-08-191-3/+12
| | | | | | | DNSMASQ_USER_CLASS0 The computation of CPU count is implemented in preup() within /etc/conf.d/net Many thanks to Roy Marples (dhcpcd + openrc + ... ) for his patience and guidance on this one, it will come in very handy for the autoconfiguration of cluster nodes.
* Last commit was too quick, warning message was incorrectly written and ↵Eric Thibodeau2008-08-191-6/+7
| | | | missing 'fi' terminating 'if'
* Final commit before deadline...see diffs ;)Eric Thibodeau2008-08-185-11/+32

* Added compensation for missing DNSMASQ_USER_CLASSn under certain ↵Eric Thibodeau2008-08-183-26/+49
| | | | | | circumbstances from within the dnsmasq script callback. - esentially add a default number of procs/node in the config file
* A crude snapshot switching scriptEric Thibodeau2008-08-181-0/+13
| | | | | NOTE: it does not compensate for the tag name defined in nfsroot-stage4.spec (that tag shouldn't be snapshot specific actually)
* Added for the X-enabled livecd with the new snapshotsEric Thibodeau2008-08-181-0/+15
| | | | | | * as always, new problems arise from switching snapshots, things don't compile out of the box ** forget not that we are using GCC-4.3 ** stages1-3 were _not_ rebuild after switching snapshots
* USE flag typo preventet $HOME from being exportedEric Thibodeau2008-08-181-1/+1

* Oops...beep only if we want to ;)Eric Thibodeau2008-08-181-1/+1
|
* Multiple addition and cleanupsEric Thibodeau2008-08-1830-105/+562
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - added passwordless SSH for root to nodes - added some FAQs and documentation - quick update of the HOWTOs - switch to snapshot 20080816 - added torque (PBS) and underlying support modules - added a few config variables to scripts to ease future changes - created openrc-0.2.5-r1 to ease the NFSROOT howto procedure + (don't have to unpack and repack the snapshot for running ebuild * digest) * corrected invalide use of non existant functions.sh in nfsroot_setup.sh beowulf-head-0.1.ebuild: * Added the modules infrastructure to be called by dnsmasq's script callback interface * provided examples are for torque and c3. -- C3's configuration file is valid but doesn't seem to work (might be a python issue) -- torque is _still_ work in progress: + some of the setup seems to be incomplete (in the ebuild) + the profile switch was to get a better chance at a working installation (2.3.3) - Science overlay was added to pull in the modularized version of openmpi Since USE=pbs in the specs, openmpi requires Torque but Torque also require kernel (stage2). Torque is currently being built twise, once minimal for openmpi, then with kernel features in the stage2. Commenting out pbs and torque in stage2 reverts the build to a simple cluster without the whole PBS infrastructure...but it works ;)
* Added support for CPUSETEric Thibodeau2008-08-171-75/+184

* Added a patch to attempt to disable bootsplash from being included on the ↵Eric Thibodeau2008-08-174-0/+224
| | | | | | livecd (minimal) ssentially genkernel's --no-splash options doesn't works.
* Trivial update to READMEEric Thibodeau2008-08-171-0/+2
|
* Adding a FAQ (anticipated questions)Eric Thibodeau2008-08-171-0/+19
|
* Adding infrastructure for node management automationEric Thibodeau2008-08-155-0/+119
| | | | | - node-manager : this is the script called by dnsmasq (see dhcp-script). - *-add and *-del files are "modules" which are called by node-manager on addition and deletion of nodes as per dnsmasq.
* Adding provision for using template files instead of explicitely defining ↵Eric Thibodeau2008-08-151-0/+49
| | | | | | them in the beowulf-head ebuild - We can't use this approach for the mooment since the files need to be accessible from the livecd at configuration time and the portage tree isn't in the livecd...
* Switch to a more recent snapshot (20080806)Eric Thibodeau2008-08-1416-60/+107
| | | | | | Addition of DNS tools for debugging name resolution Correction and cleanup of some scripts Name resolution now works correctly/automatically. No static entries required, host name resolution is entirely managed by dnsmasq.

* Unmasking of dhcpcd-4.0.0-rc4 for better interoperability with dnsmasq.Eric Thibodeau2008-08-141-0/+3
