You need a license called GALAXY, which is unfortunately not among the Hobbyist licenses.
Why don't you read the manual to get a picture about Galaxy and its functionality. It might be easier to discuss the matter then.

Do I install a separate copy of VMS in each side? Do I configure the two galaxy members to also be a cluster?
Thoughts and discussion are appreciated (remember, there's nothing 'practical' about any of this - I'm just interested in playing with all of the architectures)
Also, what license do I need for galaxy?

Well, have to test myself. It's so long a time since I've been working
with Tru64 that I've forgotten many details. It's late now so I have to
test tomorrow.

There is probably the last used desktop selection "xterm".
Try to select from the session options the CDE desktop before you log in.

I ended up in an xterm terminal and nothing else.
The usual "new DECwindows" desktop was gone.
Any ideas where to look for a fix?
The system is an AlphaServer 800 that had been power
off for a year now.

Used as in had them connected, or used as in brought them online?
The latter? No idea. The former? AlphaServer ES40 on both VMS and Tru64.

Yeah, my mistake there. I confused connectors and specs again.

Hello!
True. But would it work on a Linux system and support an external drive box?
I have a feeling we are chasing zebras without backup here.
