What does Condor-PVM do?

Condor acts as the PVM resource manager.

• All pvm_addhost requests get re-mapped to Condor.

  • Condor dynamically constructs PVM virtual machines out of non-dedicated desktop machines.

• When a machine leaves the pool, the user gets notified via the normal PVM notification mechanisms.
