So have I, but it doesn't work for tapes. Unless someone knows a trick
that I have not discovered?
No, backup won't do what you want. Backup is designed to

I have had multiple interesting and useful answers. Thanks everyone.
I checked on VMS 7.3 and there is no COPY/IMAGE there. BACKUP/IMAGE had been my
first thought, but it won't accept a tape as the source of the image data
unfortunately.

You could remove the disk from your Ultrix box, install another diskand install
NetBSD. The Pmax version works on the DEC MIPS
boxes:http://wiki.netbsd.org/ports/pmax/. You could also do that on your
DECAlpha.
The TK50Z should be a SCSI drive, you could also just
move the drive to another UNI
I used a TZ30 under Linux. I found that the TZ30 mechanism is significantly
less troublesome than the TK50 (IIRC the TK50Z is the same mechanism with a
SCSI interface board). Used an Adaptec AHA-1522 ISA SCSI controller.
FWIW, my TK50 cartridges seemed to be suffering from tape stickiness. 30

BACKUP/IMAGE might work. I have a dim recollection of moving system drives
around that way, but it's been a few decades. :-)
Best of luck, and let us know how it goes.
