Thanks for the answers. First of all I am new to the clustering technology and trying to understand how it works. Thats why I can ask funny questions, =)
What I ment is creating a supercomputer by using a cluster of computers(for example 7-8 physical servers) and on this supercomputer installing vmware server or vmware esx and using vmware installing guest OS es either windows or linux. Is this possible?
