Thanks to Jason Orendorf and Tim Cutts for the replies.

Tru-Cluster encodes the member-ID in the respective PIDs to keep them
unique to each other.  No one was sure how HP-UX comes up with their PID
assignments.  Not a big deal, just a concept that our developers were
working on.  

Thanks all!

Subject: Minimum PID number

Going to straddle the fence a little here.  A looooong time ago when we
set up our Tru64 cluster, we needed to make sure that a PID on one node
did not match up with the PID on another.  If you look on our nodes, one
will always have 6 digit PIDs, the other always 7.  We have just
installed a HP-UX box in our environment and wish to set the same thing
up on it.  Can anyone advise me on how to accomplish this?
 
TIA.
