Monthly
Save
Set
—
A
set
of
save
diskettes
that
contains
everything
on
your hard
disks,
including
your programs.
Make
this
set
on
the
first
day
of
each
month.
Always keep
a
previous month's
save
set
and
a
current
month's save
set.
•
Daily
Save
Set
—
A
set of
save
diskettes
that
contains
files
that
were
created
or
changed
since
the current
monthly save
set
was
made.
Make
this
set
at
the
end
of
each
day.
Always
keep
a previous
daily
save
set
and
a
current
daily
save
set.
If
you
enter
large
amounts
of
data every
day,
you might want
to
make
more
than
one
"daily"
save
set
each
day.
No
matter
how
much
data
you
enter,
however, never
wait
longer than three
days
before
making
a
daily
save
set.
Note:
The examples
in
this
section
use
Drive
4
(hard
disk)
as the
source
and
Drive
as
the
destination.
This
is
because
SAVE
and
RESTORE
are
intended
for
hard
disk use.
However,
SAVE
and
RESTORE
can
also
be used
to
save
files
from a
TRSDOS-II
formatted floppy
diskette
to
a
SAVE
formatted
diskette.
When
using
SAVE
and
RESTORE
between
two
floppy
diskettes,
be
sure:
•
the
source
and
destination drive
numbers
are
different
•
the destination drive
is
not Drive
0;
Drive
must
contain
a
TRSDOS-II system
diskette
Note:
Neither
SAVE
nor
RESTORE
is
possible
under
floppy
control
with
a
single
floppy
drive configuration.
References
to
floppy
drives other than
are
for
users
with
floppy
expansion
drives.
Creating
a Monthly
Save
Set
Creating a monthly
save
set
takes
time,
but
its
worth
it,
Have
several blank,
unformatted
diskettes ready.
To save
all
the
files
(including
system
files)
and programs
from
hard
disk Drive
4
to
a
floppy
diskette
in
Drive
0,
insert
a
floppy
diskette
into
Drive
0.
At
TRSDOS-II
Ready
f
type:
SAVE
:4 :0
{SYS,ALL,ABS}
(ENTEff)
TRSDOS-II
displays
a "volume
number"
which
identifies
the
diskette
in
Drive
0.
A
l
'dataset signature'
1
identifies
the
set
of
diskettes,
Write
down
the
volume
number and
dataset
signature-
When
you
later
remove
the diskette
from
the
drive,
write
this
information
on
the
diskette's
label.
When
the
diskette
is
full,
TRSDOS-II prompts you
to insert
another
diskette.
When
all
the
files
are saved,
TRSDOS-II prompts you
to
reinsert the
first
diskette
of
the set
(Volume
0).
It
then
updates
the
diskette with
housekeeping
information.
TRSDOS-II
Ready
appears
when
the
SAVE
is
finished,
Make
sure
you have
labeled
all
the
save
diskettes.
Store
them
in
a
safe place.
At the
beginning
of
the next
month, create a
new
monthly save
set
using a
different
set
of
diskettes.
This
set
becomes
the "current
monthly save
set,"
The
other
set
becomes
the
"previous
monthly
save
set/'
