$ @VMSINSTAL DECSET_A DUA3:[000000] OPTIONS N


        OpenVMS VAX Software Product Installation Procedure V7.3


It is 18-DEC-2018 at 21:39.

Enter a question mark (?) at any time for help.

* Are you satisfied with the backup of your system disk [YES]?


The following products will be processed:

  DECSE V1.A


        Beginning installation of DECSE V1.A at 21:39

%VMSINSTAL-I-RESTORE, Restoring product save set A ...
%BACKUP-F-NOTSAVESET, DUA3:[000000]DECSET_A.A;1 is not a BACKUP save set
%VMSINSTAL-E-NOSAVESET, Save set  A  cannot be restored.
