Abstract

This disclosure relates to the field of high-performance computing (HPC) clusters and techniques cluster managers or system administrators can use to avoid expensive and complicated storage for compute resources. By making in-memory root filesystems more desirable to use, it is easier to reduce hardware complexity and cost in the system.
