Administration /Disk Operations

Use the Administration/Disk Operations menu (fig. 4.14) to
perform disk operation processes that appear only when the
optional external SCSI hard disk is attached.
Fig. 4.14 Administration/Disk Operations
CAUTION: If you connect to this printer an external hard disk you
previously used with an earlier QMS Crown printer (QMS 860
release 1, QMS-PS 1700, QMS-PS 2000, QMS-PS 3200, or QMS
ColorScript 210/230 release 1), this QMS 860 software release will
automatically reorganize the files on the hard disk when the printer
is turned back on again. (The printer release number is listed on
both the start-up and the status page.) Once this reorganization is
done, the files on the hard disk can no longer be accessed if the hard
disk is attached to an earlier QMS Crown printer again.
This reorganization process takes time. If, when you first turn the
printer on after attaching a previously used hard disk, it does not
come on line immediately, be patient. Interrupting the reorganiza-
tion process could cause all files on the hard disk to be lost.
