PMDFers, Section 1.3.2 of the PMDF manual explains how to install PMDF on two nodes in a heterogeneous cluster. I think I understand it but want to make sure. I currently have PMDF running on one node no problems. I now want to install it on the other, each having their own QUEUE, LOG, TABLE, etc. directories. In fact, they will be on different disks. I realize I could share the EXE directory but don't know how if PMDF_ROOT has to point to a different place on each node. So lets say I will have two of those also. I now have the PMDF startup files in my SYS$COMMON:[000000.SYS$STARTUP] dir from the first install. This points the PMDF_ROOT to the correct place for the current install. When I install the second node, won't it will overwrite (create a new version) of this file since the nodes share a common startup disk. Don't I have to break up the startup so the two startups are in specific not common areas? The manual says the startup files will be installed in the specific areas but that is not what appears to have happened with my first install. Did I miss something? Does it sound like I know what I'm doing? Anything else to worry about? Jim Greenberg SUNY College at Oneonta "Someone lifted the Lorax away."
