Hello Paul,
RE: [HP3000-L] OT: HP's Newest and Hottest DB Server Offering
These XC-HPC compute clusters are kewl... some of the ones I have seen are
greater than 1000 nodes.
I don't get to fix them :) I usually only see the issues on the backend as
they tend to be abusive of storage which is when I get the call.
Regards,
James Hofmeister.

Kind of along those lines, I had the opportunity yesterday to tour the
data center
up at Baylor University, and one of the more interesting things they
had up there
was a supercomputer - from HP! Running Intel nodes and Red hat Linux
no less!

I was a bit impressed, but it led t me to wonder if MPE/ix and HP3Ks
have ever
developed clustering capabilities and were tey ever used in great big
computing
tasks?
A casual google search has has basically turned up nil results.
