HELPLIB.HLB  —  RMU72  Dump  Backup File, Command Qualifiers, Start
    Start=integer

    Only dump pages starting with the specified page number in the
    specified storage area. This qualifier cannot be used unless
    the /AREA qualifier is also specified. If no pages are dumped,
    either the specified page or range of pages does not exist in
    the specified area in the backup file, or this qualifier has been
    used in the same RMU/DUMP/BACKUP command as an /OPTIONS, /SKIP or
    /PROCESS qualifier option that has excluded the specified page or
    range of pages from the dump. If this qualifier is not used with
    the /END qualifier, all page records in the specified storage
    area starting with the specified page number will be output.

    If both the /START and /END qualifiers are specified, the
    starting page number must be less than or equal to the ending
    page number. If the starting page number equals the ending page
    number only the page records for the specified page number are
    dumped. The block header for each block which contains at least
    one of the requested pages is dumped followed by the requested
    page records in that block. The START AREA record is dumped at
    the start of requested page records and the END AREA record is
    dumped at the end of the requested page records. By default, the
    database root parameters are dumped at the very start following
    the dump header.
