Of course that manuals are worth the money. It's the only officially
sanctioned
literature. Parallel server is supported on Linux?????? On SUN, the
clustering
software from SUN Microsystems is needed and you need special hardware
adapters,
Veritas volume manager, dual hosted RAID boxes and some other things.
Are you
sure that there is parallel server for Linux? Where do you get DLM?
