[uml-user] SMP support for UML and OpenSSI Cluster
Hi all, Can an UML process run on multiple processor? I thought to use an HPC clustering system for processes migration between two machines. Since UML is an (user mode) process, could it be migrated from a cluster to another one? Can I benefit of an HPC clustering system to increase performances? I thought to run UML using OpenSSI cluster, is there anybody here who found some trouble doing that?

Sure, if your cluster can migrate processes, it should have no trouble with UML.

Can someone outline > how this can be done? Describe your network more completely. With multiple UMLs and bridging, each UML will have its own tap device which will be added to the bridge device. There is no sharing of interfaces except that you have these tap devices all added to the bridge.

Re: [uml-user] SMP support for UML and OpenSSI Cluster
I'm not that familiar with OpenSSI or how SKAS3 works, but wouldn't they conflict? I seem to recall being told (quite) a while back that UML wouldn't run on Mosix (not that OpenSSI is Mosix)... presumably for some SKAS related reason??? Could someone possibly elaborate? I looked at the Powerpoint presentation[1] about OpenSSI, and it seems that there may be a likely patch overlab in the Vproc and SKAS support?
