I would like to know if anyone has found a way to determine the names
of all the nodes in a cluster. The only thing I have come across is that
there is a get$syi that will return a true or false given a cluster node
name to indicate if the node is available to the cluster. This means you
need to know the names ahead of time. I think one could crunch through
some array in the lock manager and pick out unique name, but I don't want
to do it this way.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

As you suggest, F$GETSYI only returns true or false for a GIVEN node and cannot return wildcard info. However, the system service SYS$GETSYI can return wildcard information so this is how you should do it. You could write a program to store a list of cluster nodes into a logical or a DCL symbol say.
