The pmgadgets like pmgsys, pmgcluster, ... are still SGI closed source.

SGI's pmda for clusters is open source but it is tied rather strongly to

You can choose a ready guide in some celestial voice.
If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice.
You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill;
I will choose a path that's clear
I will choose freewill. - Lee/Lifeson/Peart
