user mode to continue the boot process.
NOTE: If the process needs to be aborted before completion, the printer must be powered off, then back on
before re-booting DocuSP. If you do not power off/on the printer, DocuSP still comes up and you can submit a
job, but the job does not print. Either allow for a "cycle out period," (about 20 minutes) to let the printer
complete the image Disk Overwrite operation, or power off/on the printer, then restart DocuSP.
Running the Disk Overwrite process from UNIX
To run the Disk Overwrite process from a UNIX command line, perform the following steps.
1. If the DocuSP interface is running, ensure that no jobs are currently processing and select System and then
Shutdown.
2. When the system has shutdown, type boot –s to reboot the system into single user mode.
3. When prompted, enter the root password and press <Enter>.
4. Enter one of the following commands, depending upon what is to be overwritten:
To overwrite Active Jobs, Completed Jobs, Logs, Saved Jobs and user added resources such as fonts or
forms, type:
/opt/XRXnps/bin/DataOverwrite –f
To overwrite Active Jobs, Completed Jobs, Logs, and Saved Jobs only:
/opt/XRXnps/bin/DataOverwrite –f –X /opt/XRXnps/configuration/permanent.exclude
To overwrite Active Jobs, Completed Jobs, and Logs:
/opt/XRXnps/bin/DataOverwrite –f –X /opt/XRXnps/configuration/permanent_and_saved.exclude
where the parameter f (fast) indicates single write pass plus sample or full verification.
5. A warning message is displayed asking if you are sure you want to start the Data Overwrite. Type Y and
press <Enter>.
6. The Disk Overwrite process starts.
7. If for some reason the process needs to be halted, press <CTRL> <C>.
8. When the Disk Overwrite process has successfully completed, the system is rebooted.
9. The Disk Overwrite process maintains a log of all informational, warning, and error messages. After the Disk
Overwrite process is complete, the log can be found in /var/spool/XRXnps/log/dataOverwrite.log. Refer to the
section in this document on Managing the Log File for more information.
