Quoting Michael (miramardesign):

I just started learning an hp3000 :)   I guess we are going in different
directions.
I have an hp3000 connected to an win32 iis box.
How would I go about backing up the database before I go running DOALL
commands?
-----
Michael:

Start out by doing a test:

:FILE STORDISC;DEV=DISC
:STORE @.PUB;*STORDISC;SHOW

This should backup all the files in the PUB group of the account you're
logged in to currently and if it works will prove your version of STORE can
do a store to disc backup. If it doesn't work do:

:FILE STORFILE;DEV=TAPE
:STORE @.PUB;*STORFILE;SHOW

and the operator (perhaps you) will have to put a tape in and respond to the
tape request on the console.

Substitute the "@.PUB" for the database name (e.g. [log in to unmask] if your
database is named ARDB and it's in the DATA group) and store your database
to either disc or tape.

See docs.hp.com for the MPE/iX documentation or use the link off jazz at
http://jazz.external.hp.com or just directly to
http://www.docs.hp.com/en/mpeixall.html and look for "MPE/iX System
Utilities Reference Manual" for the version of the operating system on your
machine. To tell that do a SHOWME and the version will be shown on a line
such as:

RELEASE: C.75.00 MPE/iX HP31900 C.45.05 USER VERSION: C.75.00
or

RELEASE: C.70.01 MPE/iX HP31900 C.39.06 USER VERSION: C.70.01

The first example is 7.5 and the second is 7.0
