I hadn't significant responses, but now I have from Digital Equipment
the patch on XQDRIVER (device driver of DEQNA and DELNA) that solves
this problem.
The problem arises when the boot node of LAVCLUSTER has a DEQNA or DELNA
and the cluster is of 2 nodes only (boot member included).
The name of this patch is V46PATCH10.
For who told me that has a similar problem i give this patch.
Remember that XQDRIVER.EXE is in SYS$COMMON:›SYSEXEº.

Ciao
