Re: Looking for some help-VMS Severs running Openvms V8.3-1H1
Perhaps if you could describe the reasoning behind the request, we can provide options to accomplish your goals.

Thanks indeed for the reply. Well basically these are test systems. The users are developers and just want to try sync any executeables , commands , basic user files but not huge amounts of data or databases. Its just a failsafe really in case the first system goes down

"Thanks indeed for the reply. Well basically these are test systems. The users are developers and [we ?] just want to try sync any executeables, commands, basic user files but not huge amounts of data or databases. Its just a failsafe really in case the first system goes down."
Just a failsafe ?
Is there any special reason why this test system going down should present a major problem? Your .EXE's, .COM's etc should still be okay on the disk.
Is it that a reboot takes so long that you want to move the users to the other system while the first system is rebooting?
If that's then case then clustering the two systems might give you what you need without any requirement to run these Backups and restores, moreover there's no issue with disk and directory compatibility (e.g. size). Sure a crash and reboot will cause a minor disruption to the cluster, but it should be only a couple of minutes at most.
Controlling which node users can access should be child's play.

Re: Looking for some help-VMS Severs running Openvms V8.3-1H1
BACKUP can be used to create the saveset over network. It works over DECnet. Please refer section 11.5.3 from HP OpenVMS System Manager's Manual, Volume 1: Essentials. Below is the link.
ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/openvms/doc/AA-PV5MJ-TK.PDF
You can use the below steps to create the files on other node as per your requirement.
1. Create the image backup of disk on node1 across network on to node2 with /RECORD qualifier.
2. Restore the image backup on node2.
3. On regular bases create incremental backup of disk on node1 across network on to node2 with /SINCE=BACKUP and /RECORD qualifier.
4. Restore the incremental backup on node2.
Use /IGNORE=INTERLOCK qualifier.

Ketan
