	It's not a supported configuration.  On the other hand I've
	heard that it works.  Be careful if you try though.

	There is no way to limit access to a disk within the HSC.
	There isn't a good way to limit VMS's access to the Ultrix
	disks.  I think you can SET DEVICE/NOAVAILABLE, but as soon
	as the VMS node reboots it will see them again.  From the
	Ultrix side it's easy to just not configure the VMS disks.
