Depends on what you mean by a grid/cluster. Is it a cluster of batch nodes? Or maybe it is something more sophisticated, say a cluster capable not just running jobs but managing them (depending on load or resource availability split and send to available nodes, when done combine the results before returning to the user). The latter would require you to install some grid middleware with applications. I don't know much details other than as an user. I have used lsf & qsub among batch systems, and dirac & panda among grid applications (both are based on gLite I think). I have to say, a regular batch system is probably something more appropriate for first time experimenting. Hope this helps, -- Suvayu Open source is the future.
