Hello HPCer''s
I''m pleased to announce the release of the Sun HPC Software, Linux
Edition 1.1.  With this new version, the Sun HPC Software can now be
deployed on a Linux HPC cluster running RHEL 5.2.  We''ve also provided
a new installation option based on Kickstart that allows a system
administrator to perform a semi- or fully-automated installation of an
RPM-based Linux system. The Cobbler Linux provisioning server has been
added to the stack to support an improved diskfull deployment option,
and several stack components have been upgraded,  including the new
Lustre cluster file system release (1.6.6) and OpenFabrics Enterprise
Distribution (OFED 1.3.1).

Sun HPC Software, Linux Edition is an integrated open-source software
solution for Linux-based HPC clusters running on Sun hardware. It
provides a framework of software components to simplify the process of
deploying and managing large-scale Linux HPC clusters.

For more information or to download this new version,  please visit

Thanks to the Linux software stack team for their focused, dedicated
effort to deliver these new features, and to those of you who helped
us with your early testing and feedback.  Your work is very appreciated.

Best regards,
Bryon
