CIQ Previews Warewulf Management Interface
CIQ has announced a technical preview of a “user-friendly management interface for the Warewulf cluster provisioning system.”
According to the announcement, the web interface is designed to simplify and streamline management of HPC computing clusters. The interface is built on Cockpit and accompanied by a new API, which is released under an open source license as part of the Warewulf project.
The management UI enables interactive management of Warewulf components including:
- Nodes: Systems provisioned by Warewulf.
- Profiles: Categories of nodes with a shared configuration.
- Images: Operating system payloads for deployment.
- Overlays: Built-in and site-specific customizations layered onto provisioned nodes.
“This release helps new and experienced users alike streamline cluster management tasks while also setting the foundation for Warewulf as a fully integrated appliance,” said Gregory Kurtzer, founder and CEO of CIQ and creator of Warewulf.
