[mod.computers.vax] Eagles and Low End Vax Clustering

ALAN@FANDM.BITNET.UUCP (03/24/87)

We are looking into Low End Vax Clustering an 11/785 and two MicroVax II's.
In all the DEC literature, they talk about an RA81 as the boot disk but
I have been told that any MSCP drive will work.  I am interested in
hearing from anyone that is Low End Vax Clustering with Eagles or anyone
who has a reasonable idea as to whether it would work or not.

We have an 11/785 with 4 Eagles off of an Emulex SC41 (MSCP controller)
and two MicroVax II's each with an Eagle off of QD32s.  I was originally
told that none of the drives on the MicroVax II's would be available to
the cluster but have since been told that they would be.  I seem to be
having a hard time getting reliable info out of DEC.

Any help on the Eagle to LeVC connection or on Low End Vax Clusters in
general would be of great help.
