Ondrej raised the question of whether this is a per node event (it

we want per cluster, we have to talk to Paul F. Which were you after?
I guess it really depends on the function of the startup routine. I would
say that both are needed, but it's hard to anticipate. A startup event per
node might be doing something like flushing out a temp directory, seeding a
in-memory database or starting other services. A cluster-wide startup event
might be populating or sorting out records in a shared database or starting
up shared services. Obviously the second case you only want performed by one
of the nodes (or else they are stepping on each other's toes).
