    Syntax options:

    GALAXY SUPPORT IS ENABLED|GALAXY SUPPORT IS DISABLED

    Allows global memory to be shared in an OpenVMS Galaxy
    configuration. Galaxy support is disabled by default.

    OpenVMS Galaxy is a software architecture for the OpenVMS Alpha
    operating system that enables multiple instances of OpenVMS to
    execute cooperatively in a single computer. An instance refers
    to a copy of the OpenVMS Alpha operating system. As an extension
    of the existing OpenVMS cluster support within Oracle Rdb, Oracle
    Rdb provides support for databases opened on multiple instances
    (or nodes) within a Galaxy system to share data structures in
    memory. Within an Oracle Rdb Galaxy environment, all instances
    with an open database share:

    o  Database root objects (for example, TSN blocks and SEQ blocks)

    o  Global buffers (if enabled)

    o  Row caches and Row Cache Server process (RCS) (if enabled)
