1265.0. "CM and clusters" by POBOX::CROWE (I led the pigeons to the flag..) Tue Aug 18 1992 23:10

    With version 3.0 has there been any improvements made with CM in
    regards to clusters? 
    
    My customer currently makes changes and updates through CM.  What he
    doesn't like is that once the change is made and re-entered and
    re-compiled into the form library, he has to repeat all the steps on
    the 4 other nodes in the cluster.
    
    I read in the new management guide about setting up your own .COM file
    to precompile and install form libraries on each node.  Is this the
    only answer?

1265.1Only way to do thisSIOG::T_REDMONDThoughts of an Idle MindWed Aug 19 1992 16:118
    Yes.  You're dealing with an entity which occupies shared memory.
    However, the memory isn't shared between nodes of a cluster, just the
    users of an individual node.  So you have to re-install the FLC and/or
    a TXL on each node of a cluster if its contents change.
    
    Sorry, that's VMS for you...

1265.2Only compile onceAIMTEC::PORTER_TTerry Porter, ALL-IN-1 Support, Atlanta CSCWed Aug 19 1992 22:3413
You only have to compile the form libraries once, it's the install that has
to be done on every node.

Install is fairly quick so it should be possible to put together a command 
file that runs up ALL-IN-1 and re-installs all the form libraries and TXLs 
that are installed and use SYSMAN to run this on each node in the cluster.

Of course you may re-install some things you did not change, but all that 
does is wastes a few seconds of time.
