Getting Started Quickly Using QuickClusters

QuickClusters offer a simple and automated way to create and configure clusters, as well
as an alternative to creating and configuring clusters manually with Apple Qadministrator.
QuickClusters with enabled unmanaged support automatically configure themselves and
use any available unmanaged services on the same local network (subnet). QuickClusters
listen for unmanaged service advertisements and may mark or remember any of them
for later use.

The Apple Qmaster distributed processing system has default settings that allow you to
use distributed processing immediately.
