59.0. "Changes to U43/CHEST" by RDGE00::THOMPSON () Wed Aug 05 1987 15:57

    CLUSTER ALIAS
    -------------
    Now that U43 and CHEST are clustered and (relatively) stable, there
    will shortly be a cluster alias for them  - FUTURS. This could be
    construed as a comment indicative of paranoia, but is simply the
    closest approximation of FUTURE that is not already allocated on
    the network.
    
    FUTURS will have a node address of 41.702
    
    DISC DRIVE CHANGES
    ------------------
    The new RA81's on FUTURS mean that directories can be moved onto
    volumes classed as 'APPLICATION' , 'USER' , or 'SYSTEM'. So over
    the next few weeks files will be moved so that discs 0+1 contain
    USER directories, 5 contains APPLICATION directories and 14 contains
    SYSTEM directories. Drive 13 will be used for applications when
    the application environment supports bound volumes.

    Jerry,
    	The application environment already supports bound volumes,
    that is how disk$dev005 and disk$dev006 are set up on the current
    cluster.
    
    	In fact, V1.1 of the Environment specifically removes the need
    to have bound volumes purely for space requirements. With V1.1,
    an Environment can be placed onto _any_ disk. The logical name
    APPLICATION$$P_DISK is no longer necessary.

    For cluster alias, read LAT service alias. See 57.2 in this conference.
