Re: [PATCH:openmosix-tools-0.3.6-2:build break fix]

Harshavardhana-
  The openmosix-tools 0.3.6-2 are omly for teh 2.4 series kernel.
There has not yet been an official release of teh 2.6 series and
tools. In theory Fluent should love an openmosix cluster do to it's
habit of forking out 4 process when it runs. THough looking at the
packages you are using I would reccommend going with a basic beowulf
parrallel design. I know both ansys and Fluent have builtin parrallel
clustering packages that should get better performance on a cluster
than just running it on an SSI setup.

OpenSSI is a little different beast than openmosix. Openmosix focus on
getting the best use of shared CPU power. OpenSSI focus on sharing the
whole cluster, much more like a grid engine.
