I managed to reset the system password so now I can login as well. It runs pretty well. I tried to make a tape backup of what's on the disk but it seems all my tapes dirty-up the head of the tape drive. Anyone know of a way to clean an actual tape? Pull all the tape out and wipe it with a dry cloth?
One option would be to create a SIMH VMS host, configure it to be in a cluster, configure your real HW uV3100 to be a satellite node (booting off a root on the SIMH host system disk), boot the uV3100 into the cluster, mount the uV3100 disk and back it up with BACKUP.
That might be easier and quicker than cleaning a tape. Antonio -- Antonio Carlini [email protected]
