I'm running supercomputing software called MOSIX (I really like it som far). But to get my processes to migrate to machines of lesser loads automatically, the /proc/[proc id]/lock file has to be set to '0'. I can set the bash proc lock file to 0 (echo "0" > /proc/x/lock), then it's children will be with 0, but does anyone know how I could set all my processes to a lock of 0 automatically? I would think that having the init (proc 1) lock set to 0 , everything would be ok and it's children would be unlocked, but that isn't the case, which I find weird. Is there a reason that procs are locked? Security issues? ow would I go about making sure all procs are unlocked automatically at startup? Thank you. -- James Gosnell __________________________________ Goodwill Industries of Michiana IT jgosnell@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 219-234-1661 x678 ============================================================= Avenir Web's Linux Discussion List List info: //www.freelists.org/cgi-bin/webpage?webpage_id=13 To unsubscribe: email linux-discussion-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject line.
