[HECnet] Galaxy questions

Nope.   The wordin is subtle but the ES40 is all one hardware partition so only soft partitions are available meaning you can only create OpenVMS Galaxy members.

The GS series and the ES47 are different hardware than the ES40/45 and have separate I/O drawers and PCI busses, etc.

| Soft partition.

Really?   Even though it requires dedicated network and disk hardware per-partition?   I thought only hard partitions required that.
