Hello, i'm very green on this list, had a little experience working/programming under pvm, but how about MOSIX clusters? this technology simplifies using clusters, you can just clone your prog to make it work on diferent machines, you don't need to recompile/recode all apps to make them use your cluster. also, how about fail-over techniques? ( is this the right group?) i mean - we can very easily implement technique used by novell to build their clusters ( one ip per service, migrating services <=> migrating ips) And maybe one more question, more suited for this group - what do you think about moving statistical computation to hmm let's say pvm enabled set of machines ( now it's beeing done on 2*sparc 350, quite fast, but 12*pII sth should outperform it)
regards, Eyck
