How to run gzip on another host?

[Fernando Boza]

I have a serviceguard cluster with 2 nodes HP-UX v1.
In node1 I run attached script for compress DUMP of Databases.

But the gzip process are taking the use of 100% CPU.
How can you improve that?
It is possible to move these gzip processes to node2 to use their processors but is stored in the node1?

You need to be careful here. You may be trading CPU for I/O and may take longer.
Do you want to do something else with your CPU?
If you have spare CPUs, you could split the file and gzip parts. But it looks like you already have two gzip processes at once.
