You don't need this if SHADOW_SYS_DISK = 0.

SHADOW_MAX_COPY=2

The best value is site-dependent. I have 1, but on quite old hardware.
The default is 4. (It's a dynamic parameter, though, so you can change
it if needed without a reboot.)

Also which patches should I make sure have been installed in order to
have everything up to the correct levels for the version of OpenVMS?

ftp://ftp.itrc.hp.com/openvms_patches/alpha

Install the latest update patch and any patches which are not in it
because they are newer. (Of course, as always, read the release notes
first!)
