Whether somebody has a license for a feature is not relevant to the 
configurations that VSI considers supported.

Again, licenses have bupkis to do with what is considered supported.

As for limitations of the hobbyist license (VSICL or whatever 
obfuscatory cryptonym), I'm sure VSI would be willing to sell you an 
OpenVMS Alpha license and a clustering license, though you'll likely 
also want a latter-era EV6 or later for that.
