[Simh] VAXcluster on SIMH - is it possible?

[Villy Madsen]

Well that one I can't answer Tim.

I do know that you can do rolling upgrades of VMS, but I don't know what the
limitations are wrt how far apart the versions can be.

If an answer isn't forthcoming on here - I would suggest posting the question to
comp.sys.vms .

I had this crazy thought today - dozens of simh VAXen in a cluster over the
internet.

Silly - but it might be fun to try!!

Thanks Villy and Martin. After reading some VMS docs, I was able to get two
virtual VAXen clustered. I'm going to try to get my Alphastation in the cluster
next time I'm home. From what I've read, it sounds like you can have different
versions of VMS within a cluster. Are there any limitations? Could you (in
theory) cluster a SIMH VAX running OpenVMS 7.3 and an Itanium running OpenVMS
8.3?

Thanks,
Tim
