aggregate cluster statswul

[rick bradshaw]

Andrew,
    I have a package called AmIHappy that uses some perl, php, soap that 
collects data from up to 128 nodes in a cluster. It is changeable by 
just writing a script to the system for what ever you need and it 
connects to a MySQL database to store data on the nodes. It can run at 
boot time, or when ever the user wants. It has a web front end that 
shows status of all nodes, failure nodes, or one specific node. contact 
me if you want to see the software.
