Thanks to the author of the original posting, for much food for thought.
There are a couple of points I'd like to see cleared up, though.

1)      OK, *how* do you make a single-node cluster?  When we put in our
        first VAX a year ago, it *wouldn't boot* until we set VAXCLUSTER=0!
        Yes, we have an HSC and CI hardware.  What is the magic incantation
        that will satisfy VMS as to the existence of a cluster, when there
        is only one service node?

2)      "...when putting up V5.0, and it asks you if you want the CCSD...."
        The impression I got from a recent DECUS session is that the V5.0
        installation *won't ask*; from here on *all* system disks will be
        structured as cluster-common.  Did I misunderstand something?  If
        not, this is yet another reason to become familiar with the CCSD
        structure.
