Greetings!
I am very interested in the specifics of this solution. As I understand it you want to run FreeVPS or UML... on OpenSSI running under xen.
What advantage would there be to running this in conjunction with xen in your configuration?
The problem with running User mode apps on a cluster is that they are improperly threaded for running over a cluster. Other issues that would be encountered would include cache thrashing, latency.
I spent over a year trying to get a project together to patch Open Mosix so that it would run an emulator on top of it. Had some smart people working on it that indicated there is no general solution for running non properly threaded applications on top of a cluster...that was nearly 4 years ago so things might have changed.
If you could explain this further it would be appreciated.
