PelicanHPC是基于Debian的自启动运行光盘镜像，其宗旨是简化高性能计算集群的安装。其前端节点（或者是真实的计算机，或者是虚拟机）直接
从该镜像引导。计算节点则依靠预执行环境（PXE）来启动，它们以前端节点为服务器。集群的所有节点都从相同的光盘镜像获取它们的文件系统，因此，所有的
节点都运行相同的软件。该光盘镜像通过运行一份单独的脚本创建而得，这也使得可以基于额外的Debian软件包来定制该自启动运行光盘镜像。
Michael Creel has announced the release of PelicanHPC 2.3, a Debian-based live CD for high performance computing clusters formerly known as ParallelKnoppix: "PelicanHPC
2.3 is available. From this release forward, Debian 'Squeeze' will be
the base for PelicanHPC, until further notice. Also, PelicanHPC is
henceforth available only in a 64-bit edition. There are no major
changes since version 2.2, apart from the newer versions of most
packages. In particular, the kernel is now at 2.6.32, and Xfce is
looking sharp at version 4.6.2. In the move from 'Lenny' to 'Squeeze' as
the base, the Ganglia monitoring system has stopped working, because
the configuration files have not yet been updated. I would be happy to
receive gmond.conf and gmetad.conf files that cause the installed
version of Ganglia to work properly on PelicanHPC. KSysGuard still works
well as a cluster monitor, though." Visit the project's home page to read the brief release announcement. Download: pelicanhpc-v2.3.iso (649MB, MD5).
