Overview 5 xCAT3 Documentation, Release 2.16.3 xCAT Management Node (xCAT Mgmt Node): The server where xCAT software is installed and used as the single point to perform system management over the entire cluster. On this node, a database is configured to store the xCAT node definitions. Network services (dhcp, tftp, http, etc) are enabled to respond in Operating system deployment. Service Node: One or more defined “slave” servers operating under the Management Node to assist in system man- agement to reduce the load (cpu, network bandwidth) when using a single Management Node. This concept is necessary when managing very large clusters. Compute Node: The compute nodes are the target servers which xCAT is managing. Network Services (dhcp, tftp, http,etc): The various network services necessary to perform Operating System de- ployment over the network. xCAT will bring up and configure the network services automatically without any intervention from the System Administrator. Service Processor (SP): A module embedded in the hardware server used to perform the out-of-band hardware con- trol. (e.g. Integrated Management Module (IMM), Flexible Service Processor (FSP), Baseboard Management Controller (BMC), etc) Management network: The network used by the Management Node (or Service Node) to install operating systems and manage the nodes. The Management Node and in-band Network Interface Card (NIC) of the nodes are 6 Chapter 1. Table of Contents xCAT3 Documentation, Release 2.16.3 connected to this network. If you have a large cluster utilizing Service Nodes, sometimes this network is segregated into separate VLANs for each Service Node. Service network: The network used by the Management Node (or Service Node) to control the nodes using out-of- band management using the Service Processor. If the Service Processor is configured in shared mode (meaning the NIC of the Service process is used for the SP and the host), then this network can be combined with the management network. Application network: The network used by the applications on the Compute nodes to communicate among each other. Site (Public) network: The network used by users to access the Management Nodes or access the Compute Nodes directly. RestAPIs: The RestAPI interface can be used by the third-party application to integrate with xCAT. 1.1.5 xCAT2 Release Information The following tables documents the xCAT release versions and release dates.

  • 1. D-Bus a D-Bus FAQ Szerint D-Bus Egy Interprocessz-Kommunikációs Protokoll, És Annak Referenciamegvalósítása
    Az Udev / D-Bus rendszer - a modern asztali Linuxok alapja A D-Bus rendszer minden modern Linux disztribúcióban jelen van, sőt mára már a Linux, és más UNIX jellegű, sőt nem UNIX rendszerek (különösen a desktopon futó változatok) egyik legalapvetőbb technológiája, és az ismerete a rendszergazdák számára lehetővé tesz néhány rendkívül hasznos trükköt, az alkalmazásfejlesztőknek pedig egyszerűen KÖTELEZŐ ismerniük. Miért ilyen fontos a D-Bus? Mit csinál? D-Bus alapú technológiát teszik lehetővé többek között azt, hogy közönséges felhasználóként a kedvenc asztali környezetünkbe bejelentkezve olyan feladatokat hajtsunk végre, amiket a kernel csak a root felasználónak engedne meg. Felmountolunk egy USB meghajtót? NetworkManagerrel konfiguráljuk a WiFi-t, a 3G internetet vagy bármilyen más hálózati csatolót, és kapcsolódunk egy hálózathoz? Figyelmeztetést kapunk a rendszertől, hogy új szoftverfrissítések érkeztek, majd telepítjük ezeket? Hibernáljuk, felfüggesztjük a gépet? A legtöbb esetben ma már D-Bus alapú technológiát használunk ilyen esetben. A D-Bus lehetővé teszi, hogy egymástól függetlenül, jellemzően más UID alatt indított szoftverösszetevők szabványos és biztonságos módon igénybe vegyék egymás szolgáltatásait. Ha valaha lesz a Linuxhoz professzionális desktop tűzfal vagy vírusirtó megoldás, a dolgok jelenlegi állasa szerint annak is D- Bus technológiát kell használnia. A D-Bus technológia legfontosabb ihletője a KDE DCOP rendszere volt, és mára a D-Bus leváltotta a DCOP-ot, csakúgy, mint a Gnome Bonobo technológiáját. 1. D-Bus A D-Bus FAQ szerint D-Bus egy interprocessz-kommunikációs protokoll, és annak referenciamegvalósítása. Ezen referenciamegvalósítás egyik összetevője, a libdbus könyvtár a D- Bus szabványnak megfelelő kommunikáció megvalósítását segíti. Egy másik összetevő, a dbus- daemon a D-Bus üzenetek routolásáért, szórásáért felelős.

  • The Linux Device File-System
    The Linux Device File-System Richard Gooch EMC Corporation [email protected] Abstract 1 Introduction All Unix systems provide access to hardware via de- vice drivers. These drivers need to provide entry points for user-space applications and system tools to access the hardware. Following the \everything is a file” philosophy of Unix, these entry points are ex- posed in the file name-space, and are called \device The Device File-System (devfs) provides a power- special files” or \device nodes". ful new device management mechanism for Linux. Unlike other existing and proposed device manage- This paper discusses how these device nodes are cre- ment schemes, it is powerful, flexible, scalable and ated and managed in conventional Unix systems and efficient. the limitations this scheme imposes. An alternative mechanism is then presented. It is an alternative to conventional disc-based char- acter and block special devices. Kernel device drivers can register devices by name rather than de- vice numbers, and these device entries will appear in the file-system automatically. 1.1 Device numbers Devfs provides an immediate benefit to system ad- ministrators, as it implements a device naming scheme which is more convenient for large systems Conventional Unix systems have the concept of a (providing a topology-based name-space) and small \device number". Each instance of a driver and systems (via a device-class based name-space) alike. hardware component is assigned a unique device number. Within the kernel, this device number is Device driver authors can benefit from devfs by used to refer to the hardware and driver instance.

  • Happy Birthday Linux
    25 Jahre Linux! Am Anfang war der Quellcode Entstehungsgeschichte und Werdegang von Linux Entwicklung und Diversifizierung der Distributionen Der Wert von Linux oder: „Wat nix kost, dat is och nix.“ Andreas Klein ORR 2016 1 Am Anfang war der Quellcode (70er) ● 1969, Ken Thompson u. Dennis Ritchie erstellen die erste Version von Unix in Assembler. ● Von 1969-1971 entwickeln sie gemeinsam die Programmiersprache B. ● Ab 1971 erweiterte in erster Linie Dennis Ritchie B, um weitere Elemente und nannte sie Anfangs NB (new B). ● 1973 waren die Erweiterungen soweit gediehen, das er die stark verbesserte Sprache C nannte (Brian W. Kernighan hat ebenfalls maßgeblich dazu beigetragen). //Unix=25 PCs ● Bis 1974 war das gesamte Betriebssystem UNIX vollständig in C implementiert und wurde mit einem C-Compiler kostenfrei an verschiedene Universitäten verteilt. ● 1978 wurden bereits über 600 Computer mit dem UNIX-Betriebssystemen betrieben. ● Das aufblühende Zeitalter der Computerisierung der 70er Jahre war geprägt vom regen und freien Austausch von Programmen und dessen zugrunde liegenden Ideen. Sinnvoller Weise tauschte man diese als Quellcode untereinander aus. ● 1979 wurde von AT&T die letzte UNIX-Version 7, mit freiem Quellcode veröffentlicht. Andreas Klein ORR 2016 2 Am Anfang war der Quellcode (80er) ● 1980 – 1983 AT&T sowie zahlreiche andere Unternehmen beginnen mit der Kommerzialisierung von UNIX, durch Koppelung an stark beschränkenden Lizenzen und Geheimhaltung des zugrunde liegenden Quelltextes. ● Richard Stallman kündigt am 27. September 1983 in den Newsgroups net.unix-wizards und net.usoft das GNU-Projekt an. ● Am 5. Januar 1984 begann Stallman offiziell mit der Arbeit am GNU-Projekt, nachdem er seine Stelle am MIT gekündigt hatte.
