About BACKUP Manager

    You can guard against data loss or corruption by using BACKUP Manager
    to create copies of your files, directories, and disks.  In case of a
    problem, such as a disk drive failure, you can restore the backup
    copy and continue your work with minimal disruption.

    You can perform the following BACKUP Manager backup operations:

    ·  Make copies of disk files into a single file called a save set.
       A save set can be created on disk or magnetic tape.

    ·  Restore disk files from a save set.

    ·  List the contents of a save set on the screen or write the
       contents of a save set into a file.

    For BACKUP Manager to be an effective safeguard against data loss,
    you must back up important data on a regular basis.  You must also
    know how to restore the data if necessary.  If you practice backing
    up and restoring some files, you will be prepared if a problem
    arises.  For more information, see "Backup strategies" in the
    "Concepts ..." help topic; see also "Recovering data with multiple
    backup strategies" in the "Tasks ..." help topic.

    BACKUP Manager is intended to address the needs of standalone, small,
    and medium computer systems.  It is not intended for large data
    centers, which sometimes have complex backup strategies and needs.
    For more complex backup strategies and a complete description of
    BACKUP concepts, including information about backing up the system
    disk, see the "OpenVMS System Management Utilities Reference Manual"
    and the "OpenVMS System Manager's Manual".
