Does anyone know of some list of clustering software? Is there anything I can use today to do #2 that runs on freebsd (or other bsd systems)?
For most application it means rewriting the software for the use in a cluster.
Check the port system for the strings cluster, MPI, there is thirty option but i forgot this. (you find it on some site looking for MPI; could be MVP but i'm not sure).
PVM. There are variants of MPI too, MPICH, LAM, etc. There are even variants for specific hardware like Myrinet.
You may also want to look into the PBS port, although its sort of old and should be updated to a more recent OpenPBS version (I have 2.3.14, which is free from the nastier license terms). There is also a SLURM port that has appeared recently and someone was working on a SGE port too.
These are more HPC clustering tools though and you seem to be looking in the HA space instead.
"Clustering software" is rather a broad category. There is software in that category that runs on FreeBSD, but you'll need to be more specific to get better answers :).
I don't believe FreeBSD currently has anything for transparent process migration like BProc or MOSIX (although IIRC MOSIX was originally written for BSD).
