Yes, it was a full Single System Image (SSI) system -- one of the 3B4000's SW architects was Tom Bishop, whom I'm still in contact (he's in the Austin these days). Those folk did a nice job. FWIW: When the 4000 project was canceled in Indiana Hill, Tom joined us @ LCC to work on TNC.

ISTM the 4000 was one of the earlier UNIX clusters, very close to Locus in time? Any pointers for more info would be appreciated, I don’t care if it sucked it’s still interesting

Nope. The only pictures I had of the '4000 were from the night we
"decommissioned" it. They were lost many moves ago. But even if I
still had them I would not let them out in public, to protect the
guilty.

Which is a shame, because some of them were quite entertaining :-)
