Archiving and Restoring Data
Erasing Files from the Hard Disk
To erase files you have already archived from the hard disk, do as follows:
1. Make certain you are in MS-DOS and you have the DOS prompt. From
the CMS Administration Menu, you can press [F8] (Exit to DOS) to get to
the prompt.
2. Type
cd c:\cms\cmsrept
3. Type a series of commands in the form
erase
where dyymmdd. cms is
NOTE:
You can also use the "delete" command, as follows:
delete
(in place of "erase").
Generating Historical Reports
If you have transferred old CMS data from the hard disk onto diskettes, you
may later want a report or a complete set of reports for a particular date. The
procedures that follow explain how to restore the system tables and data files
of interest from the diskette onto the hard disk so that you can generate
reports for that date.
