UCM
About UCM
UCM stands for "Universial Cluster Management". UCM has been developed to monitoring and control multiple nodes under UCM based MDC (Micro Data Center) cluster. With UCM, administrator to manage multiple cluster nodes and real-time monitoring much easier using the provideds web interface and command line interface (UCMCLI), just like any clouder vendors.
UCM software package shipped on UCM master node (1U appliance) and optional Slave node (same spec with master) for active and backup configuration.
UCM Appliance
HPCMATE provides UCM as appliance for hyperscale cluster configuration. UCM master/slave redundancy operation with node lock license of default and user selectable optional plugins.
UCM customer can add one or more optional plugin features whenever they wants after purchasing UCM appliance with updated license contents on the master/slave.
