Introduction

This guide provides specific information about tools and methods for maintaining the ICE ClusterWare™ cluster, ways to control cluster usage, methods for batching jobs and controlling the job queue, how load balancing is handled in the cluster, and optional tools that can be useful in administrating your cluster.

Both the ClusterWare graphical user interface (GUI) and the command-line interfaces employ the same underlying interfaces to the ClusterWare database. When applicable, instructions are given for completing tasks in both the command line and the GUI.
