Yes, you will get a message from a monitor or link to a process on a
remote node, which requires that the nodes be connected, when the
remote process dies. You can just have premature death if the net
tick time is too long (not sure why, but it seemed like some
internal assumption that is made, not controlled by the net tick
time, saw in an older release but I assume it is the same still), so
that is why it is best to stick with the default net tick time,
unless you want to test that mechanism alot.<br>

hello Michael,

<div>you're assuming right (separate VM), I'm familiar with links
and monitors, thank you. However I doubt that any message is
sent from a dying process if the VM on which it runs actually
blows up. That was my point.</div>

distributed Erlang, and have the twin processes monitoring
each other. If you wanted a simple process death if
either died, you could consider using a link instead of 2
monitors. However, that seems like the simplest solution,
to avoid unnecessary complexity. You might find
strangeness if you start not using the default net tick
time (i.e., with a process link inbetween nodes), with
distributed Erlang, but you probably know it is best to
not play with that.
