How to fork or spawn processes to second processor ?

[Sabre]

Hi everybody,

how can I spawn or fork a second process onto the second processor of my
dual core server ? Is there a possibility to determin the processor on which
a process shall run ?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

from your post it's not clear why you would want to do that or which operating
system you are using.

Normally, you can expect any decent multi-processor operating system to
distribute the load nicely over all available processors. Relying on that
might help you.
