Just realised the problem is a different one to the one I thought. I was 
jumping to some conclusions. It looks like the actual problem (or at least 
one of the problems) is that DECnet won't start because of this error:

               DECnet address of local node must match VMScluster system ID.

As I am not especially expert on clustering I would rather go back to where 
I was before, even though this looks like an excellent learning opportunity 
:-) But I would prefer to save that for another day if there is a way to 
rollback.

Regards
