It's my understanding the clusters with VAX and Integrity are supported "for
migration purposes" (i.e. it is known to work) but clusters with all three
hardware platforms are not supported.  I suspect the real issue is the
functional disparity between OpenVMS V7.3 and OpenVMS V8.2 & later (7.3
being the last release for VAX and 8.2 being the first release for IA64).
