Special Options -- Multiple Disk 1130 Users
Copy a Data File onto Another Disk
If you have more than one disk drive, you will usu-
ally take this option rather than the ones described
earlier -- dump to cards for backup, or copy to
another part of th. same disk. This requires a two-
step procedure,
s~ce
data files cannot be copied
directly from the UA on one disk into the UA on
another disk. The transfer must be via WS.
Suppose you have an 88-sector file, called DAT AX,
in UA on cartridge 1075, and you want to copy it into
the UA on cartridge 1077. Assume that cartridge
1075 is on drive 0, and 1077 is on drive 1. The
following card sequence will accomplish this task:

You can see that the file was first moved from UA
to WS on cartridge 1075, then from WS on 1075 to
UA on 1077. The file now exists on both cartridges,
and each has the same name: DATAX.

Copy a Program onto Another Disk
If you have multiple disks, you may also choose to
back up your programs by copying them to another
disk, rather than dumping to cards. This is similar
to the previous task, but eas ier, since you do not
have to know the size of the program, as was the
case with a data file.
You must still, however, go
via WS in the two-step procedure:
12 54 , 6 78 910 1112 1314 1516 1718 19 20 2122 2324 2526 2728 2930 3132 3334 3536 3738 3940 412

This copies the program or subprogram called
PROGX from cartridge 1075 to cartridge 1077. As
before, the program now exists on both cartridges,
each of which has its own LET.
Neither the format (DSF or DCI), nor the type
(program or subprogram) need be known, or specified.
Copy an Entire Disk onto Another Disk
This is not done with the Disk Utility Program (DUP)
but with a Disk Maintenance Program called COPY,
which is supplied with the Monitor.
If
you want to
copy the entire contents of cartridge 1967 onto car-
tridge 1968, you execute COpy:
12 3 4 5 6 78 910 1112 1314 15" 1718 1920 2122 2324 2526 2728 2930 3132 3334 3536 3738 3940
