Hey,
Is there any movement in the kernel world to "pickle" process, i.e. completely move a process and all associated kernel resources to disc. At a later time the process could be "brought back to life" on a DIFFERENT machine. The idea would be to move processes around between a cluster of machines, possiblly storing a process for months or years before waking it up again.
Has this been a discussed before? Is it even possible? Seems very useful.
Please respond to my email address as I'm not a regular subscriber of this list.
Cheers, Curt
