<p class="MsoNormal">All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is anyone out there, or do you know anyone/have a source who is, a VMS and/or Compaq(HP or DEC) expert? I’m looking for a consultant, either on the phone or preferably in person.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have an Compaq/DEC Alpha XP900 running open VMS for my Raith (Leica/Vistec) EBPG5000 ebeam lithography tool. One of the two hard disks failed and 3 tape drives have failed. We have another tape drive on order …<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have a replacement hard disk and backup tapes (though fewer now after the failed tape drives destroyed two) and a backup file on our network, which can be moved to the system drive. However, I’m running up against my lack of VMS knowledge.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For completeness, there is also a CD-ROM drive and a floppy. We are running Open VMS 7.2.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If anyone has a contact or would be interested on working on something like this, please let me know. Alternatively, if anyone has a contact that can repair or recover hard disks of this type, I would be more than appreciative.
