   Has anyone found any company that sells 4 or 8mm backup devices for a
   BI bus, and supports it under Ultrix?

There was a discussion of this topic a while back in comp.sys.dec.

I can tell you that Micro Technology makes an 8mm with Unibus and
HSC incarnations.  I can also say that Ultrix sites using these
devices exist, but there are many more VMS site from what I can tell.

They have also just announced a 4mm product which I presume can be
utilized with their existing interfaces.

I can't personally endorse these products since I haven't used them
but provide this information in the hope that it may be of use to you.
