The OpenMosix approach is a good solution to build powerful and scalable computing farms. Furthermore an easy management infrastructure is implemented using diskless nodes and network boot procedures. In HENP environment, the choice of OpenMosix has been proven to be an optimal solution to give a general performance boost on implemented systems thanks to its load balancing and process migration features. In this poster we give an overview of the activities, carried out by our computing center, concerning the installation, management, monitoring, and usage of HPC Linux clusters running OpenMosix.
