I wish more people could look at RAC for OpenVMS (I wish *I* could look at it!). It's dead simple compared to installing RAC on other platforms because clustering has been part of VMS and it's RMS filesystem longer than most of us have been in the "business" (and by the "business" I do mean "The Industry"). And VMS clusters scale to 96 nodes with 500 miles in between them. Just a shame really. A damn shame.
