    MOSIXVIEW Clustermanagment
    Description:
    At first congratulations to the MOSIX-Developer-team. Good work!
    MOSIXVIEW is a GUI for managing MOSIX-Cluster. Everybody is invited to download it and
    use it (at your own risk and responsibility).

    You can adjust the main parameters of your Mosix-Cluster. It is a front-end for the "mosctl"-Commands. The "speed"of each node can be changed whith slide-buttons, that does not mean that you can increase the physical speed of a computer but you can influence what Mosix thinks what its speed is.
    My expirience is that processes will migrate a lot easier if the "speed" of the node the process is migrating to is higher than that one the process is running on.
    (i set the speed of my "home-node" very low if i run some "bigger" jobs but still want to work at this host. Than all CPU-intensive processes will migrate to other nodes and on my "home-node" the load is quite low).

    There are two more MOSIX-applications in MOSIXVIEW Version >= 0.9:
  • -MOSIXCOLLECTOR
  • -MOSIXLOAD

  • The MOSIXCOLLECTOR is a daemon. Started on one cluster-node it logs the whole MOSIX-load history. MOSIXLOAD anaylyzes these history log-files and display them in a graphical way. The MOSIXCOLLECTOR saves the history automatically once a day. You can load this backup log-files in MOSIXLOAD too.

    You can manage these tools from within MOSIXVIEW but you can also run them as stand-alone applications.

    MOSIXVIEW >= 0.5 includes a client to install on each cluster-node. It can be executed on the remote hosts and displayed local (it sets xhost +hostname) and is a minimized version of MOSIXVIEW based on the process-manager already know by the main application. It is usefull especialy for managing programs started and running on the other cluster-nodes (view screenshot).

    comments, exchange of expirience etc. feel free to mail me M. Rechenburg
