While I don't recall reading about anyone managing this trick, the various 
linux clustering projects might be an interesting place to start. 

Migrating a running process from one system to another would require being 
able to take a snapshot of the program's running state in order to 
replicate it on another system.  Seems like you should be able to write 
that state to local disk for recovery after a reboot. 

Maybe someone with more hands on experience with this type of clustering 
could confirm what sort of crack I'm smoking though.
