megatest uses the network filesystem to call home to your master

lsf (also known as openlava) batch systems and it should be
straightforward to use it with other similar systems.</p></div>

<div class="paragraph"><p>Megatest is designed as a distributed or decoupled system. This means
you can run the areas stand-alone with no additional
infrastructure. I.e. there are no databases, web servers or other
centralized resources needed. However as your needs grow you can
integrate multiple areas into a bigger system.</p></div>

<p>
Multi-area dashboard and xterm. A gui (the dashboard) is usually the
  best option for controlling and launching runs but all operations
  can also be done from the commandline. Note: The not yet released
  multi-area dashboard replaces the old dashboard for browsing and
  controlling runs but for managing a single area the old dashboard
  works very well.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
Area/testsuite. This is your testsuite or automation definition and
  consists of the information in megatest.config, runconfigs.config
  and your testconfigs along with any custom scripting that can&#8217;t be
  done with the native Megatest features.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
If your testsuite or build automation is too large to run on a
  single instance you can distribute your jobs into a compute server
  pool. The only current requirements are password-less ssh access and
  a network filesystem.
