[HECnet] Re: Some new nodes

The x86 programme continues in the form of a pre-built vmdk usable on virtual box etc., unless you qualify as an ambassador in which case you can have a personalised licence(s) for all three architectures, with renewal conditional on how you’ve participated as an ambassador.

Some new nodes to be added to the HECnet registry please. BUZZEL 29.113 CORRIN 29.114 Both are VMS 9.2.2 x86-64 running under Debian Qemu/kvm. They are clustered together via shared virtual SCSI discs. Seem to be working quite well. Terrible timing however, what with the bombshell VSI just dropped about the community licences. I’m tempted to become an Ambassador – I may have something to contribute in the VMS runtime department, along with LLVM. Ah well. As I understand it, they dropped the Alpha and IA64 community licenses, but x86 ones continue. paul
