Note that node failure will lead to OS failure, so auto restart and fault-tolerant mode are extremely important. Will be happy to provide more info! Have you got our white paper? Please go to http://www.scalemp.com/info-request, and request white paper. It will clarify many questions. Kilian,

Except a few benchmarks and some buzzword-compliant marketing technobabble, concrete information about ScaleMP's product (how does it work, does it survive a node failure, what about a feature list?) is pretty much non-existent. Do insideHPC readers (or writers) have any first-hand experience with it? This vSMP Foundation seems a really neat product, at least on paper.
