Did you make sure to move all node specific configuration files to
SYS$SPECIFIC and all common config files to SYS$COMMON ?

[ ala disk:[SYSx.SYSEXE]  and disk:[VMS$COMMON.SYSEXE]  ?

In a cluster, each node must still have its own distinct system root
with the node specific files in that root.

This is a bit far now, but for separate nodes:

on NODE-A:
	NODE-A is defined as executor
	NODE-B is defined as an end node.

on NODE-B
	NODE-A is defined as end node
	NODE-B is defined as executor

I can't remember if DECNET can be in the common directory or if separate
decnet configs are needed.

If you share the authorization and proxy files, then the decnet
authentication is shared and you need to "merge" the 2 distinct ones
into a common one.

for instance nodeA::user1 maps to nodeB::user1
and nodeB::user1 maps to nodeA::user1

You can use node wildcards for the source, but you need separate entries
for each node.

*::user1 maps to node-A::user1
*::user2 maps to node-B::user1
