MIGRATE(1)              System General Commands Manual              MIGRATE(1)  <<

NAME

     migrate - request migration of a particular process on openMosix

SYNOPSIS

     migrate pid {openMosix_ID|home|balance}

DESCRIPTION

     migrate requests openMosix to migrate the process given by pid to either
     workstation number openMosix_ID, back home to its base-workstation, or as
     best suits it after considering migration to improve the load-balance.

     While the super-user may specify any process, including even remote
     guests, a normal user may only specify their processes or processes of
     matching real or effective user ID.

     An appropriate error message is displayed if the kernel refuses to
     migrate the process.  However, the process may also end up not migrating
     due to conflicting migration-requests from other sources.
