Managing Storage Media; Performing Batch Operations; Setting The File System Operation Mode - HP 830 Series Configuration Manual

Managing storage media

CAUTION:
After a storage medium is formatted, all files on it are erased and cannot be restored. If a startup
configuration file exists on the storage medium, formatting the storage medium results in loss of the startup
configuration file.
If part of a storage medium is inaccessible, use the fixdisk command to examine the medium for any
damage and repair the medium.
To manage the space of a storage medium, perform one of the following tasks in user view:
Task
Repair a storage medium.
Format a storage medium.

Performing batch operations

A batch file comprises a set of executable commands. Executing a batch file is the same as executing the
commands one by one. However, execution of a batch file does not guarantee successful execution of
every command in the batch file. If a command has error settings or the conditions for executing the
command are not met, the system skips this command.
You can edit a batch file on your PC, and then upload or download it to the device. If the extension of
the file is not .bat, use the rename command to change it to .bat.
To execute a batch file:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Execute a batch file.
