One-to-N user interface:

• The industry's leading cluster GUI and command-line-interface.
• A system admin can click-select a set of servers and groups for cloning, managing or monitoring thousands of servers at once.

Cloning:

• Choose one server and replicate its image over N servers in the cluster. CMU can clone a thousand servers in less than half an hour.

Remote management:

• Choose one set of commands or scripts and execute them on N servers with a single mouse-click.

Monitoring:

• Choose, with one click per sensor, to display real-time metrics for N servers in a pie-chart format or in a 3D tubular display designed for optimal display of data-collections.
• Configure alerts to cause threshold-triggered actions.

Cluster diagnostics:

• Verify that the components, connections and interactions of the cluster infrastructure are all working correctly and at full performance.

Extensible menu of common cluster operations:

• A default drop-down menu of commands includes power on/off, firmware installation, parallel distributed shell and unattended Linux installation.
• Simple file-edits can be used to add operations to the menu.

Scalable performance:

• Hierarchical ultra-lightweight cloning and monitoring operations are automatically done in parallel.
