Summary0000620: Support for Stratus OpenVOS EVF Archives
DescriptionIt appears that the magic number database doesn't identity EVF archives, created under Stratus OpenVOS. Although, there isn't a formal specification, the C source code, for the tool that generates them, is available, and has the following to say, about the header of these files:

J * VOS <file_name> <sequential|relative|fixed|stream> <record_size> , * [encapsulated|not_encapsulated] = * [encoded|not_encoded|seq_encoded|base64_encoded]

Attaching an example, of this format (which contains the tool source, itself), which has the following header:
VOS evf-2.0.save sequential 0 encapsulated not_encoded
Steps To ReproduceRun "file", on the EVF archive. It should report something like "Stratus OpenVOS sequential, encapsulated EVF archive (evf-2.0.save)". File currently reports only "data".
TagsNo tags attached.
