Gollach : configuration of a cluster based linux virtual server

This thesis describes the Gollach cluster. The Gollach is an eight machine computing cluster that is aimed at being a general purpose computing resource for research purposes. This includes image processing and simulations. The main quest in this project is to create a cluster server that gives increased computational power and a unified system image (at several levels) without requiring the users to learn specialised tricks. At the same time the cluster must not be tasking to administer.
