Maybe I have been out of the clustering loop too long but I figure I can contribute something helpful.

I setup & presented a Bewowulf cluster that used PVM for my SysAdmin2 class. I posted my slides online at my webpage http://www.virtualacuity.com/james/projects.html. In particular I used xpvm, a PVM monitoring tool for X, and it allowed me to see how the cluster was operating. In my slides, slide number 17 shows full utilization of the cluster across 5 nodes. The slides are now dated & old (this was before mosix was forked into OpenMosix) but the images are proof that it works.
I hope this helps.
