[Simh] MicroVAX II time across boots

How does a real MicroVAX II preserve its time across boots?

How is this implemented in simh MicroVAX II? i.e. what virtual device 
should I attach to a file so that the time is preserved in VMS?
My configuration (below) does not preserve the time (VMS V7.3 fully patched)

Thanks,
