The mosix package provides a file /etc/default/mosix
which can be configured for certain defaults. For example,
setting MOSIX_NODE=yes is required (and is the default) for
mosix to be initialised upon bootup. You can also initialise
mosix by hand with
/etc/init.d/mosix start
.
The other things that can be currently configured are the default node policy using the variables MIGRATE and BLOCK. Setting MIGRATE=yes allows local processes to migrate to remote nodes by default. Similarly, BLOCK=no will allow remote processes to migrate to the local node, by default. MFS can be disabled with MFS=no.
Finer grained per-process control is being worked upon right now.
