Backing up a System

Common Controller
To backup a system, use a DocuPrint EPS controller with a QIC
tape drive, at least 3 tapes (maybe up to 6 QIC tapes), and the
XBR floppy.
NOTE: The most common reason for backup procedure failure
is a bad tape. Restart the backup process with a new tape. The
system has to be shutdown before the backup operation can be
performed.
1. Open a Terminal window.
2. In the terminal window, log in as root.
3. At the command prompt, type
init 0
4. and press Enter.
5. At the Ok prompt, type
boot -s
6.. Steps 3 and 4 first shut down the system, then reboot it in
single-user mode.
7. Enter the root password.
8. Insert the XBR floppy in the disk drive and a blank tape in the
tape drive.
9. At the command-line prompt, type
mkdir /a
10..
11. Type
mount /dev/diskette /a
12. and press <Enter>. This command causes UNIX to
access the diskette drive (/dev/diskette) through the /a
directory.
13. Type
cd /a
14..
