you need at least openMosix >= 2.4.17 !
The /proc/ -interface changed from /proc/mosix -> /proc/hpc in that version
and openMosixview won't find any openMosix-files in
older openMosix- or Mosix- version.

What you can do if you cannot update your kernels in your
cluster easily is to change in all .h files  in the openMosixview
directory (and applications directory too):

#define clusterdirectory "/proc/hpc/nodes/"

to 

#define clusterdirectory "/proc/mosix/nodes/"

and recompile. That should work.

not critical

that is exactly the error that openMosixview could not find
the /proc/hpc-directory.
