Cluster Monitoring and Management in the WebCI Environment

摘要

In this paper, we present the design and implementation of the WebCI (Web Condor Interface) tool for multiple Condor pools management and monitoring. Our project focuses on communication and persistence, the most important aspects of web interfaces for cluster management. Thanks to the usage of standard tools like SCP and SSH, WebCI distinguish itself from other available cluster web interfaces because of seamless installation of new resources. In addition, WebCI aids users in job preparation, files exchange between client's machine and resource, and other tasks. It also allows to execute any batch command on managed resources, that gives large functionality.
