[Info-vax] VAXCluster vs. VMSCluster?

Me again...... which means you KNOW there's about to be a "Do'h!" 
moment...


Using SimH, I've managed to setup a VAX11/780 simulation using OpenVMS 
7.3, DECNet-Plus and TCP/IP. All is well, I can - for example - FTP to 
my FTP server, grab files, etc.

So... I applied all of the Layered Product licences, all is well, then 
went to create a cluster, so I can boot this troublesome MicroVax.

Unfortunately, I've run into a problem...


My hobbyist licences included "VMSCLUSTER". But, once I'd run 
CLUSTER_CONFIG.COM & got it to go through without error, on re-booting I 
get the following messages:

The licence is called VMSCLUSTER, not VAXCLUSTER - is that, technically 
speaking, a different product?

Any assistance appreciated, as usual. If you want, I can post up the 
entire boot log, and the output of any commands I should run 
separately... If I should try this on the VAX simulator (rather than 
VAX780), then I can try that too...


Thanks in advance!
