XEROX 4635 LASER PRINTING SYSTEM—SYSTEM GENERATION GUIDE
Function
Modifies the configuration file in response to selections made through the
Configuration Options menu. (Refer to the "Sysgen configuration options" chapter.)
Note that the only changes to the system configuration that should be made using
mini are to those features whose software has been incorporated in the operating
system by a previous sysgen. For example, you may deactivate or reactivate a
feature or change interface address parameters by using the mini sysgen procedure.
(Generally, when you add features to the system, the system files must be changed
or patched. This requires an update sysgen, invoked using the SYSGEN, AUTO, or
FLOPPY commands to ensure system file integrity.)
CAUTION: Do not execute the MINI command immediately following completion
of a SYSGEN command. This prevents the application of patches.
Clears any or all of the system disks. All files on the disks, except for the MBAIS and
bad block files, are destroyed. This includes user files. Because the ERASE
command does not perform a sector check, it executes faster than the FORMAT
command. (Refer to FORMAT.)
Enter commands after the sysgen prompt character (>), then
press <ENTER>.
After the command has completed processing, the prompt
character displays again (except after the BOOT command). The
menu need not display for you to issue a command.
The command may be entered as shown in the menu or may be
abbreviated to as few letters as necessary to differentiate it from
any other command in the menu.
Example
To enter the command SYSGEN, you can enter any of the
following abbreviations:
...or by SYSGEN spelled out in full.
You may enter several commands as a string, and the system
executes them serially. For example, entering FORMAT, SYSGEN,
and BOOT, then pressing <ENTER>, results in each procedure
being invoked in turn unless fatal errors occur.
