yes... Others are catching up. Tru64 is the first Unix to have a true cluster common filesytem and now supports 8 nodes in a cluster. Sun seems to be in bed with Veritas for their filesystem and promises an improved SunCluster soon (if not already out). Windows 2000. Getting there. Still failover last I heard. But my point about 8 year lead is Galaxy is the cat's meow. The shared disk paradigm got a tweek and became a shared memory paradigm and are just on the edge of releasing grand features that will be a long time in being matched by other OSes. Tremendously difficult to tweek a kernel to do these things. Requires "brain surgery" as one of the patent holders described it.. i.e. 95% of the code was already in VMS but the addition and verification of the other 5% took over 2 years (I believe)... But much more to come. Rob
