PROOF Installation

The purpose of this section is to describe how to enable PROOF on a machine or a cluster of machines. Enabling PROOF on a cluster of machines means to configure and start a dedicated daemon on each machine running as master / worker, hereafter referred to as the servers.

Nothing special has to be done (in addition to install and enable ROOT) on the local machine (the client) to be able to start a PROOF-enabled clusters: the relevant plug-in libraries are included in ROOT and will be automatically loaded.
