There are a few developers that continue to work on openMosix and to port it to 2.6 kernels.
They forked a project called LinuxPMI - Linux Process Migration Infrastructure http://linuxpmi.org Currently the site is unavailable but there was one Russion guy who commented big parts of the openMosix code he started workin on that in the begining of February this year and in May he and a few other developers forked LinuxPMI from openMosix. I had a working 2.6 kernel with openMosix functionality in Jul but I never had the chance to test its process migration capabilities as the nodes from my home cluster died :( Marian On Tuesday 30 September 2008 12:14:11 Tony Travis wrote: > Keith Hacke wrote: > > Dr Travis > > > > > > > > Below is a recent question you posted concerning usage of MOSIX2.
