Hi Eric et al,
this is nothing we would recommend or even have tested. I would assume
it to fail - if it works it is pure fortune.
Generally it is recommended to keep the cluster nodes on the same
Solaris release (including patch state, if applicable).
I don't think it makes sense to invest time to get this configuration to
work, thus I recommend to install both nodes with build 97 and SCX 09/08.
