HP clusters can be managed by a broad range of cluster management options, both commercial and open source. In addition to HP developed tools, such as HP Cluster Management Utility, HP works with Platform Computing and ClusterCorp to enable qualification of cluster tools on our systems.

HP Cluster Management Utility (CMU) 
HP CMU is an efficient and robust tool for the management of HPC clusters and compute farms. A simple graphic interface enables centralized console management, monitoring of cluster-wide and node-specific metrics, and software installation. Through its efficient cloning mechanism, CMU can quickly deploy target images across clusters with 1000s of nodes. With its CMU rapid provisioning and management of multiple images, CMU is ideal for a site with frequent changes to the software configuration across the cluster or on a subset of the cluster. Factory integration of CMU on HP Cluster Platforms is offered worldwide.
