OK, I may be on the other side of the state, but I couldn't let this one slide. :-) Did you check SHERLOCK? I found 12 entries with the subject "VAX/VMS". One of them was "VAX/VMS : concepts and facilities", which might be appropriate for what you are trying to do. Can't find it at Miami? Hit the "U" key to transfer the search to the OhioLINK central catalog, and you'll find 31 entries in the state. Requesting one of them is only a keystroke away ("G", to be exact). And you thought I was really gone...
