Bob - No, I didn't forget, I have the VAX-VMS licence too. That is fine 
on ASTVAX, but it won't share across to MV0001 (because of the NO_SHARE 
option...); but that's OK for now, I'd like to get the VMSCLUSTER sorted 
before I look at the VMS licence.

Unfortunately, whilst that does save some typing, it ultimately doesn't 
help as loading/enabling/modifying the VMSCLUSTER license doesn't seem 
to make any difference. I also found I couldn't register licenses via 
that script, as it asked some questions which the licenses I received 
didn't answer; either that, or I typed a zero instead of an O in the 
checksum...
