How does it defeat the purpose when you are using vms on the same host though?

The only system I really know anything about is ScaleMP. For this you require an infiniband network between all the hosts and a specialised bios and/or infiniband firmware to make it work. ta Andrew On 20 March 2013 19:33, Jonathan Aquilina <eagles051...@gmail.com> wrote: Yes that's what I am curious about.

I asked some users that use my the provider that I am with which is linode.com what would be the best way to start clustering these vps's together?
