Grid5000:Software
OAR 2.0
OAR is a resource manager (or batch scheduler) for large clusters. It allows cluster users to submit or reserve nodes either in an interactive or a batch mode.
- Status: Production/Stable
- Contacts: Olivier Richard
- Homepage: http://oar.imag.fr
- Availability: OAR 2.0 is installed on Idpot (Grenoble) and Paraquad (Rennes)
Kadeploy 2.1.5
Kadeploy is a fast and scalable deployment system towards cluster and grid computing. It provides a set of tools, for cloning, configuring (post installation) and managing a set of nodes. Currently it deploys successfully linux, *BSD, Windows, Solaris on x86 and 64 bits computers.
- Status: Production/Stable
- Contacts: Julien Leduc
- Homepage: http://kadeploy.imag.fr
- Availability: Kadeploy is installed on all Grid'5000 clusters
TakTuk 3
TakTuk is a tool for deploying parallel remote executions of commands to a potentially large set of remote nodes. It spreads itself using an adaptive algorithm and sets up an interconnection network to transport commands and perform I/Os multiplexing/demultiplexing. The TakTuk mechanics dynamically adapts to environment (machine performance and current load, network contention) by using a reactive work-stealing algorithm that mix local parallelization and work distribution.

KaVlan
VLAN manipulation tool for network isolation of experiment
- Status: Alpha
- Contacts: Pierre Neyron
- Homepage: http://kadeploy.gforge.inria.fr/
- Availability: tested in Idpot (Grenoble), Grillon (Nancy), Capricorne (Lyon)
Katapult
Katapult is a small, well-tested script to automatically start experiments using deployments. Most experiments start by deploying the nodes, re-deploying the nodes if too many of them failed, copying the user's SSH key to the node, etc. Katapult automates all those tasks.
- Status: Production/Stable
- Contacts: Lucas Nussbaum

- Availability: tested on most clusters
GRUDU
GRUDU for Grid5000 Reservation Utility for Deployment Usage is a tool for managing Grid5000 resources executed on the user machine. It provides :
- the acces to the Grid5000 grid environment through a GUI interface allowing the user to get detailed informations on the grid, the clusters, and the present jobs.
- the reservation of resources on default or deploy queue thanks to an user-friendly interface
- the deployment of images on the nodes reserved on the deploy queue (through Kadeploy)
- the acces to a terminal on each level of the grid (the connection frontale, a cluster frontale or the master node of a reservation)
As GRUDU is a JAVA-based software it is cross-platform and only needs a JVM 1.5.0 or later to work.
