Abstract
A mechanism for automating the process of establishing a resource grid is provided. First, a grid establishment component (GEC) is communicatively coupled to a plurality of nodes, wherein each node provides zero or more resources. Next, the GEC selects which of the nodes to include in a resource grid and establishes the resource grid by configuring each selected node (i.e., grid node) to participate as part of the resource grid. In addition, the GEC establishes one or more grid masters to manage access to the resources provided by the grid nodes. Once the grid nodes are configured, and one or more grid masters are established, the resource grid is ready for regular operation. By automating the grid establishment process, the GEC removes a significant burden from a system administrator, and greatly simplifies and accelerates the process of establishing a resource grid.
