It is not possible to move a running process. Load balancing in a cluster occurs BEFORE the process starts - by creating the process on the least busy machine.
On a multi-cpu box, the load is shifted among processors. Once the process starts.
One other possibility is to have the same process sleeping everywhere and have it waken to handle a single request on a selected machine.

bos_start
BOS_START(8) AFS Command Reference BOS_START(8)
NAME
bos_start - Starts a process after setting its status flag
SYNOPSIS
bos start -server <machine name>
-instance <server process name>+ [-cell <cell name>]
[-noauth] [-localauth] [-help]
bos start -s <machine name> -i <server process name>+
[-c <cell name>] [-n] [-l] [-h]
DESCRIPTION
The bos start command sets the status flag for each process specified by the -instance argument to "Run" in the /etc/openafs/BosConfig file
and in the BOS Server's memory on the server machine named by the -server argument, then starts it. If the process is already running, the
command's only effect is to guarantee that the status flag is "Run"; it does not restart the process.
To start a process without changing its status flag in the BosConfig file, use the bos startup command instead.
OPTIONS
-server <machine name>
Indicates the server machine on which to start processes. Identify the machine by IP address or its host name (either fully-qualified
or abbreviated unambiguously). For details, see bos(8).
-instance <server process name>+
Names each process to start. Use the process name assigned with the -instance argument to the bos create command. The output from the
bos status command lists the names.
-cell <cell name>
Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with the -localauth flag. For more details, see bos(8).
-noauth
Assigns the unprivileged identity "anonymous" to the issuer. Do not combine this flag with the -localauth flag. For more details, see
bos(8).
-localauth
Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local /etc/openafs/server/KeyFile file. The bos command interpreter presents the ticket
to the BOS Server during mutual authentication. Do not combine this flag with the -cell or -noauth options. For more details, see
bos(8).
-help
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.
EXAMPLES
The following command changes the status flag for the "upclientbin" and "upclientetc" processes to "Run" in the BosConfig file on the
machine "fs6.abc.com" and starts them running.
% bos start -server fs6.abc.com -instance upclientbin upclientetc
PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
The issuer must be listed in the /etc/openafs/server/UserList file on the machine named by the -server argument, or must be logged onto a
server machine as the local superuser "root" if the -localauth flag is included.
