ClusterMonkey: Get ready. Software will get installed, configuration files will get edited, nodes will boot, lights will blink, messages will get passed, and we will have a cluster. Joy.

The entire cluster measures, 40 inches (102 cm) high, 24 inches (61 cm) wide, 18 inches (46 cm) deep and is shown in Figure One Below. (See part one for more and bigger pictures).
