Workshop on administration of large clusters

What is it about?

As you may have seen from this website ;-) we want to create an intelligent management system that eases the administrator's job and makes administration of very large computing systems possible.

At the workshop we will present the project and its current status.

You can use this opportunity for influencing the development of TIMaCS so that this tool will provide valuable services to you in the future. Tell us what experiences you have made with the monitoring and management solutions that you employ at your site and which things you are missing or what could be done better in some way.
