How to do backup onto multiple DVD media

Hi,
Can someone please briefly describe the steps on how to do a backup of
a huge file (eg. my vmware's image) from my hdd onto the multiple DVD
media?

How to make it span across the DVD media?

I don't enough hard disk's space to store those files and thus I need
a backup.

Thanks a lot.

Roxio Easy Media Creator automagically does this when you try to save the
file onto a DVD.

Acronis True Image will span CD's and DVD's automatically. It will even split
files to go onto a FAT file system.
