Hi, 

I finally got around to writing down my cluster-consistency checklist that I've 
been planning for a long time: 

https://github.com/oplehto/cluster-checks/ 

The goal is to try to make the baseline installation of a cluster as consistent 
as possible and make vendors work for their money. :) Of course hopefully 
publishing this will help vendors capture some of the issues that slip through 
the cracks even before clusters are handed over. It's also a good idea to run 
these types of checks during the lifetime of the system as there's always some 
consistency creep as hardware gets replaced. 

If someone is interested in contributing, pull requests or comments on the list 
are welcome. I'm sure that there's something missing as well. Right now it's 
just a text-file but making some nicer scripts and postprocessing for the 
output might happen as well at some point. All the examples are very HP 
oriented as well at this point. 

Best regards, 
Olli-Pekka
