Subject: PROCESS IMIGRATION

Hi

I saw something about one project of FreeBSD and this is about imigration of
processes between two machines.
The kernel Linux has something about this , or some project like that ?

thanks

Well ,I have tree Pentium(200mmx , 166 & 120 ) running
with Mosix .This is a patch for the kernel, i have 2.4.19 and
several user progs for admin.
Now , the node #3 is running setiathome owned for the node #1.
Basicly the nodes balance yours loads.

Right next door (oops, city):

http://www.cos.ufrj.br/~edpin/epckpt/

What is EPCKPT?

EPCKPT is a checkpoint/restart utility built into the Linux kernel.
Checkpointing is the ability to save an image of the state of a
process (or group of processes) at a certain point during its
lifetime. Checkpoints are important to a wide range of applications.
The most common uses for checkpointing are:
* Fault-tolerance
* Applications trace/Debugging
* Rollback/Animated playback
* Process migration

Our main interest right now is process migration. So, we optimized
EPCKPT to make process' image the smaller possible, so migration costs
would be low.
