Hmm, you said XXDP in the title, then you ask about VAX in the body.
But no, I don't know of any net-bootable diagnostics for -11's or VAXen.

The easiest way to do this, I think, would be to boot full-fledged VMS from
another VMScluster member. You know, VMS, that OS that has had clustering for
fifteen years or so now? :-)
