Physical Assembly
Frontend
Nodes of this type are exposed to the outside world. Many services (NFS, NIS, DHCP, NTP, MySQL, HTTP, ...) run on these nodes.
Compute
These are the workhorse nodes.
Ethernet Network
All compute nodes are connected with ethernet on the private network. The every machine in cluster called node

Installation Preparing
In our workshop, We will Install the pack of rocks consist of: Boot Roll (compute roll)
OS Roll Disc 1 OS Roll Disc 2 Grid Rolls
Rocks Installation.
Pick the Disc, The Rocks base disc 1 and HPC Roll. Insert the Rocks Base CD into your frontend machine and reset the frontend machine. After the frontend boots off the CD, you will see the boot screen:

cluster-fork Command.
cluster-fork is a command for distribute another command to all node in the cluster Example
#cluster-fork poweroff
For an example the poweroff command is distributed to all compute node in cluster. And let few minute all compute node is shatdown
