Wouldn't it be possible (if less fun) to have the simulator interpret
the contents of the CI packets (which might just contain MSCP)?
I actually agree. I'm not sure I see the point here. We're talking MSCP,
which have already been done. CI is just a different transport layer for
the MSCP packets.
Isn't clustering over Ethernet available under VMS, delivering the
same end-user experience? Modern (Gbit) Ethernet is faster than CI ever was.
Yes. Although there are some slight differences between ethernet and CI,
but from a practical point of view, for cluster networking, ethernet
works just as well.
