cp error.log.back temp
h. If you want the older log files, copy them by entering:
cp trace.SenoServer.log.xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
i. If you want the older archived log files, copy them by entering:
cp oldfiles/trace.SenoServer.log.xxxxxxxxx.Z
3. Change to the temporary (/export/home/sdc/senovision/logfiles/temp) directory, by entering:
cd temp
4. Compress all of the files in the temporary (/export/home/sdc/senovision/logfiles/temp) directory, by
entering:
compress *
5. If any of the resulting files exceed the size of a floppy disk, they can be divided into smaller parts by
using the split command. For example, to split the file ExamEvents.log.Z into parts smaller than
1.3 Mbyte, enter the following command:
split -b 1300 k ExamEvents.log.Z
This generates two part files: ExamEvents.log.Z.01 and ExamEvents.log.Z.02
Each of the part files can then be copied to floppy as for the original files.

4. Change to the temporary (/export/home/sdc/senovision/logfiles/temp) directory where the com-
pressed log files exist, by entering:
cd /export/home/sdc/senovision/logfiles/temp
5. For each required log file, enter the following command to copy the appropriate file to floppy disk:
cp <logfile>.log.Z /floppy
For each file, replace the string <logfile> by the appropriate file name.
To copy non-compressed files, omit the characters .Z from the command.
