| 1) Message boards : Server programs : Setting up a BOINC server
Message 38808 Posted 6 Jul 2011 by Nick |
I now have a Dell PowerEdge Server r710 - it is 'out of the box' without any OS installed. I just want to confirm the setup of the server: 1. Install Linux server software - which type is recommended? In the 'Setting up a BOINC server' page on the BOINC site it hasn't specified that it should be Linux SERVER software and also hasn't recommended which Linux release is preferred. 2. Install the BOINC server VM. Does this approach have any disadvantages? Also, will it mean that the server software mentioned in the BOINC software prerequisites listed in http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/SoftwarePrereqsUnix no longer needs to be installed (as it is contained in the VM)? 3. Can you advise if all of the Dell server's memory should be allocated for the Linux OS? Is the above sufficient to set up the server ready for the running of projects or have I missed anything? |

If anyone is interesting in looking at how to combine multi-agent systems with BOINC please respond to this post with your email address. You should know BOINC well and also have some knowledge of multi-agents sytems. There can also be some funding provided for this work if necessary... |

I don't know how familiar you all are with multi-agent systems but do you see any potential research involving the use of multi-agent systems in a volunteer computing environment like BOINC? Thanks! |
