Migrating VMware instances

Hello,

I read through the FAQ and came across the entry for VMware that indicated 
openmosix owuld load balance several instances of VMware. When I tried to 
do this using vmware-gsx I was faced with the VMware processes being 
locked on the home node with these flags (monkey, mmap_dev, clone_vm, 
direct_io). I tried altering the VM config by removing devices like floppy 
that could have lead to locking, but in the end I was unable to get any 
level of success.

I'm running a 2.4.27 based om kernel using the migshm patches. My VMware 
is somewhat dated being version 3.1.0 but I have seen no indication of a 
particular version that was better at migration than any other. If anyone 
who has had positive experience with this could let me know what kind of 
config they were using it would be of great assistance.

Thanks,

Dave Pippenger
