CUC 2004 F1 Emir Imamagić, Davor Mihajlović - Automatic Installers Review
Cluster computer consists of a group of interconnected computers working together as a single computer. Beowulf is a special type of cluster where the access to all nodes is done through server node. Server node has set of set specific software packages, while nodes have identical software installed. For installation of OS and software packages on client nodes specific systems are used. These systems are called automatic installers. Automatic installer is a system used for automatic deployment of software on remote computers. Beside for cluster installation, automatic installers are used for installation of large number of workstations (e.g. classroom computers). Typical automatic installer architecture is following. All software packages are placed on server machine. Client nodes then use some type of network boot procedure. After boot, packages are fetched and installed on nodes.
