It does help if you can come up with a set of the
actual DEC CD's though,
as a lot of the stuff in the Hobbyist licenses aren't on the Hobbyist CD's.
I managed to get a set for the Alpha (the VAX Hobbyist CD has everything I
needed).
Hmm...I'll have to keep my eyes open for that stuff.
Now the question is, do you have all those systems
clustered?
Not yet. I was a VMS sysadmin several years ago (5.4 was current) but I
never played with clustering. I'd like to cluster the two 4000-400s at the
very least; maybe all of them. Since you mention that yours are clustered,
could you recommend a good place to start?
BTW, nice set of VAXen, make the VAX side of my cluster
look downright
pathetic!
Nah, *all* VAXen are cool!
There's
no excuse for having these machines powered off, folks...go get VMS
and fire 'em up!!
Agreed, VAXen should be running VMS :^)
