# Cluster_Shared

> This sample demonstrates the use of shared memory in a cluster environment. (Note that several processes can be run on the same node. )

### How to Run

> In a console window run:

>         cluster_shared 2 0

> This first process for node 0 will create the cluster database in shared memory. Then in a second console window run:

>         cluster_shared 2 0

> This second process for node 0 will connect to the database created by the first process. Then in a third console window run:

>         cluster_shared 2 1

> Note that only the first process (which creates the database) will print out the database content.

> But it is more instructive to run one instance in your development environment debugger, stepping through the code.
