Some people prefer https://crmsh.github.io/documentation/ and some people

The answer to that depends on what you want to do with them.

As a general-purpose computing resource, you can't.  The CPU on machine A has 
no (reasonable) access to the RAM on machine B, so no part of the system can 
actually work with 400GBytes RAM.

For specialist purposes (generally speaking, performing the same tasks on 
small pieces of data all at the same time and then putting the results 
together at the end), you can create a very different type of "cluster" than 
the ones we talk about here with corosync and pacemaker.

A common usage for such a setup is frame rendering of computer generated films; 
give each of your 100 PCs one frame to render, put all the frames together in 
the right order at the end, and you've created your film in just over 1% of the 
time it would have taken on one computer (of the same type).
