You don't specify and based on your description I infer that you are
not using a batch/queueing system, but just a rsh/ssh based start-up
mechanism. A batch/queueing system might be able to tell you whether a
remote computer is still accessible.
I think that MPI is not the proper mechanism to achieve what you want.
PVM or, maybe better, direct socket programming will probably serve
you more.
