Backing Up the Customized System Disk and Initiating Systematic Backups  



After you have customized the OpenVMS operating system to your satisfaction and performed the other steps recommended thus far in this chapter and relevant to your system, protect your work by making a standalone backup copy of the system disk, following the steps explained earlier in Backing Up Your System Disk.

For complete information about backup operations, including a description of an alternative method that does not require booting from the operating system CD or DVD, see Backing Up and Restoring the System Disk.

HP also recommends creating a systematic routine for backing up the application, data, and user disks. For more information, refer to the HP OpenVMS System Manager's Manual, Volume 1: Essentials.
