1. vdv and vdh are only good for 11m(+) to 11m(+) usage, nada for vms.

2. Bru doesn't currently understand decnet at all.

3. backup only understands decnet re: save sets.

4. What I have seen done is the following:

	a. create a virtual disk
	b. bru your backup to the virtual disk
	c. copy the virtual disk over the the vax
	d. use vms backup to backup that file.

5. alternatively, copy all of the files over to a vms directory and
	then backup that directory.....

	Sorry to be so negative, but it is a problem and one that dec does
need to address....
