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? --
