If by "nothing like" you mean to omit vastly more capable LDAP, sure. 
Not that OpenVMS has deigned to integrate LDAP into most apps, or any 
other form of app configuration management API or tools.

As for the use of logical names in managing apps, the sheer unmitigated 
joy of having some logical name silently and out-of-band defined 
somewhere else utterly derailing production processing in some weird 
way is something I will always treasure, of course.
