   8 at least mentioned vmsbackup
   1 dect
   1 vmsbu

By far the commonest reply was "vmsbackup". Three folk even included
the code! Others mentioned the name or supplied archie listings.
(I had tried archie with save_set/saveset and backup!).

Im using one of the supplied versions. But others could try:-
        emx.cc.utexas.edu /pub/mnt/source/util/vmsbackup
        krynn.efd.lth.se: /pub/arcers/vmsbackup.shar
        cs.tut.fi: /pub/src/tape-readers/vmsbackup/*
        cs.uni-sb.de: /pub/utils/vmsbackup.tar.Z
        
Thanks for the help. everybody.
