Unfortunately, neither EBU or SQL-BackTrack supports OPS on DEC alpha
clusters with ADSM.  Your only solution today with ADSM would be to
use the unsupported tool, ADSMPIPE.  We are more likely to see a
SQL-BackTrack for OPS with Digital UNIX, than EBU support with ADSM.
I suggest you ask DataTools for this support, and I will do the same.
