Cory,
If you want to share the SYSUAF.DAT (and you technically don't have to in a VMS
cluster, but it gets a bit hairy with multiple ones), you would put it on a common disk
directly mounted by all nodes and pointed to by the SYSUAF system logical name, oh and
usually a bunch of other files are included with this, There is a template command
procedure in SYS$STARTUP that describes them, I believe SYLOGICALS.
A quorum disk is only needed to provide a vote, and usually only used in a two node
cluster.
Recent VMS versions do have external authentication capabilities but you still have a
SYSUAF.DAT as a backup...

Got a (hopefully) quick question regarding clustering
I've got a VAX<---->Alpha cluster rolling (VAX for booting VAX
satellites, Alpha for Alpha satellites) and I'm running in to an issue
with the SYS$UAF stuff. Only the password/user DB...nothing else needs
shared.
What's the easiest way to share it between the VAX and Alpha nodes
WITHOUT a using a quorum disk?
1). Kerberos or something? (I could have both query active directory...)
2). Shove SYS$UAF on MOIRA$dka100, mount in SYLOGICALS on all nodes?
3). Other
