Abstract
A process can be scheduled between first and second hosts that using a virtual file system that is shared between the hosts can be used. The process, running on a first hypervisor of the first host, can be scheduled to run on a second hypervisor of the second host. A file can be created that includes the data content of the process address space for the file. The file can be mapped address space of the virtual file system. Data from the physical memory of the first host can be transferred to physical memory of the second host using page fault routines.
