Reading further... My microVMS manual (QLN55-GZ, VMS 4.4) on page 1-23 does not
mention anything about standalone backup.  I think the manual is in error. 

I think that what is intended is a backup with no users, but what is specified
will NOT work on any VAX, past, present or future, that I know of.  Standalone
backup is mentioned in another section in the context of restoring files
or a complete system.
