DUHHH!! Now why didn't I think of that!! Having had to deal with installs of
our products on a couple of NUMA-Qs it should have sprung to mind - Guess
I'm still in holiday mode - or coffee deprived (I suspect both :)

Having said that - I still didn't know what NUMA stood for - Thanks for the
info Scott, Jared & Hannibal!

Regards

Mark

Non Uniform Memory Access (aka, Sequent machines? NUMA-Q?)  Check O'Reilly's
website, they have an excerpt from Oracle Parallel Processing:

"Non Uniform Memory Access systems Non Uniform Memory Access (NUMA) systems
consist of several SMP systems that are interconnected in order to form a
larger system. All of the memory in all of the SMP systems are connected
together to form a single large memory space. NUMA systems run one copy of
the operating system across all nodes."
