Cluster Consolidation and Sovereign Grids is a video tutorial of a session offered at Moab Con that offers further details for understanding cluster consolidation and sovereign grids.

Moab Grid Scheduler allows sites to establish relationships among multiple clusters. There are three types of relationships you can implement within the grid: (1) centralized management, (2) source-destination management, and (3) localized management. These relationships provide access to additional resources, improve load-balancing, provide single system images, and offer other benefits. The grid interface is flexible allowing sites to establish the needed relationship.
