505.0. "OSDS for OpenVMS V7.1 ?" by DUB01::M_CRONIN () Mon Apr 21 1997 13:17

    Hi,
    
    Since there does not seem to be a notes conference for OSDS software
    I'll ask here:
    
    Is there a verson of these pieces of software that will run on OpenVMS
    AXP V7.1 ?
    
    OSDS Optical Storage Desktop Software for OpenVMS AXP			
    OSDS Optical Storage Management Software for OpenVMS AXP			
    
    V3.4 seems to only go as far as V6.2.
    
    If not, when will it be available ?
    
    Is OSDS-5 the same thing ?
    
    
    Thanks in advance,
    
    Mary.

:    Since there does not seem to be a notes conference for OSDS software

    Please see the ELWOOD::OPTICAL notes conference for the information
    available -- there's not much -- on OSDS support for OpenVMS Alpha
    ("AXP" was "retired") V7.0 and later.  Specifically, see the notes
    626.*, 772.*, 785.*, etc.

    Per web IR, the answer is presently "no", though the OSDS product
    manager may be willing to comment further on "if" and "when".

:    Is OSDS-5 the same thing ?

    There is ODS5 (which is quite different), and there is Optical Storage
    Management Software (OSMS), and Digital Optical Desktop Management
    Software (ODMS).

    ...use MSGAXP::OPTICAL. ELWOOD may or may not be part of that cluster
    any more. 
    
    OVMS/Alpha V7.1 support is being worked... But you'll have to ask the
    product manager for dates.

    Just to complete this note stream...
    
    OSDS-5 is the character string in the product name part of a OSDS
    PAK.  It is used to symbolize that the OSDS product can be used
    with the 5� inch optical products.  OSDS-12 is used for 12 inch
    optical products.
