    ODS-5 is being introduced primarily to provide enhanced file
    sharing capabilities for users of Advanced Server for OpenVMS 7.2
    (formerly known as PATHWORKS for OpenVMS), as well as DCOM and
    JAVA applications.

    System managers must understand the impact of an ODS-5
    environment before enabling it for general users. It is essential
    that system managers perform the following steps before enabling
    ODS-5:

    o  Review all ODS-5 restrictions.

    o  Understand the support levels for different OpenVMS
       applications.

    o  Segregate applications that do not support ODS-5 or have not
       been tested with ODS-5 names or volumes.

                                   NOTE

       It is recommended that you enable ODS-5 disks in a
       homogeneous OpenVMS Version 7.2 (and later) Alpha cluster
       only.
