This page contains a list of items which still need to be done on the cluster.

There is a random error when installing the clients in the rack with FAI. The clients start to output a lot of things on screen, but unfortunately they scroll to fast to be read. I could not find any way to block them.
A daemon that checks the status of the UPS should be installed on both majorana and polyphemus.
Install Ganglia to monitor the usage of the cluster via web.
Make the configuration of the package on the diskless and on the rack more similar. At the moment FAI takes care only of modifing the important configuation files in /etc.
Use one repository for the configuation of those packaged which use debconf. I found out that this program can be used to access configuration DBs also shared via NFS of querying a LDAP server.
Install LDAP instead of NIS (only if it is better).
Install a new version of Sun Grid Engine (or something else).
