Description:
MOSIX is a management system that allows a Linux cluster or a
Grid of clusters to perform like a single computer with multiple
processors. MOSIX is particularly suitable to run intensive
computing and applications with moderate amounts of I/O.
Its main feature is to make all the connected (participating)
nodes perform like a single computer with multiple processors,
almost like an SMP.
Users can run parallel (and sequential) applications by
creating multiple processes, then letting MOSIX seek resources and
automatically migrate processes among nodes to improve the overall
performance, without changing the run-time environment of migrated
processes.
MOSIX is fully POSIX compatible. It provides applications with
a run-time environment that is identical to that provided by
standard Unix, so there is no need to change or even link
applications with any special library.
MOSIX was originally developed to manage a single, e.g. private
cluster. Recently, it was extended with new features that could
make sets of independent nodes, collectively called a MOSIX grid,
run as a federated system of cooperative nodes.
Specifically, a MOSIX grid consists of one or more physical
clusters, e.g., in different departments, or a collection of
independent servers and/or workstations that could belong to
different users, as well as any combination of the above
configurations.
The goal of a MOSIX grid is to allow owners of such nodes to
share their computational resources from time to time, while still
preserving the autonomy of each owner to disconnect its nodes from
the grid at any time without sacrificing migrated processes from
other clusters.
Due to network latencies, MOSIX is suitable to run compute
intensive and other applications with moderate amount of I/O over
fast networks. Tests of MOSIX show that the performance of several
such applications over a 1Gb/s campus grid is nearly identical to
that of a single cluster.
Another key requirement for a safe computing is a guarantee
that the network is trusted and secure. Since nowadays these
requirements are standard within clusters and enterprise
intra-organizational grids, e.g., over VPNs, we reccomand the use
of MOSIX in such cases. Other than the above safety requirements,
nothing prevents the use of MOSIX in any other grid.
Here are some key features of "MOSIX for Linux 2
6":
· Provides aspects of a single-system image:
· users can login on any node and do not need to know
where their programs run.
· No need to modify or link applications with special
libraries.
· No need to copy files to remote nodes.
· Automatic resource discovery and workload distribution
by process migration:
· Load-balancing.
· Migrating processes from slower to faster nodes and
from nodes that run out of free memory.
· Migratable sockets for direct communication between
migrated processes.
· Secure run time environment (sandbox) for guest
processes.
· Live queuing - queued jobs preserve their full generic
Linux environment.
· Batch jobs.
· Checkpoint and recovery.
· Supports both 32-bit and 64-bit x86 architectures.
· Tools: automatic installation & configuration
scripts, on-line monitors.
What's New in This Release:
· Minor bugfixes.
