Hello VMS folks,
just a very simple question, what does a command like this do:
BACKUP MULTIA_V72.BCK/SAVE DVA0:/IMAGE/VERIFY
(it's alpha vms, so not sure whether floppy is named DVA0: on VAXen,
too).
I know basicaly what this does, my question is whether the .BCK file has
some special format or whether UNIX command like this:
$ cat MULTIA_V72.BCK > /dev/diskette0
or
$ dd if=MULTIA_V72.BCK of=/dev/diskette0
is equivalent.
If it's some special format, were it possible that you issue this
command for me on some VMS and grab the diskette raw file and make it
available for me? the image is available at

Cheers,
