How often does an entire VAX cluster crash? We're trying to build a system
with sufficient redundancy to stay up practically all the time (2 VAXes
identical in hardware and software, HSC50, DEC's disk shadowing), and don't
know how paranoid to be about the possibility of the whole cluster's
going out to lunch. Any hints?
    (Please reply to me directly. I'll post a summary.)
    Thanks in advance.
