Warewulf has a real time top like command for the cluster nodes and

We are just kicking off Warewulf development again now that Perceus
has gotten to a critical mass and Caos NSA 1.0 has been released. We
should have our repositories for Warewulf-3 pre-releases up shortly
but if you need something ASAP, please contact me offline and I will
get you what you need.

Thanks!
Greg
