Goanna
Goanna is a graphical status viewer for clusters. It currently displays node and network status data from Fountain. One of its key features is its ability to visualize Infiniband network topologies.
Goanna is a work in progress; version 0.4 builds on the framework established in 0.3 to provide error displays and a richer topography model. Feedback is requested as to what would be useful in terms of data displays, visualizations, etc.
Goanna should run on any platform supporting GTK+, GtkGLExt, and a few other libraries. For more details, see GoannaPlatforms in the wiki.
For a taste of Goanna (including screenshots), read its manual.
