Creating System Software Backup Diskettes

Backup diskettes for some device driver software and system software products are not delivered
with the system. Use InterSite Version Manager, available through InterSite Welcome, to create
system software backup diskettes.
Version Manager lets you create backup diskettes containing device driver software and system
software products that were installed on the system before shipment, and which are not available
on the operating system CD-ROM. You may need these backup diskettes later -- for example, if
you have to reinstall a device driver or the operating system.
WARNING You must create system software backup diskettes after you set up the system
hardware and complete the operating system Setup program. If you do not do
this, you may not be able to reinstall critical system software or the operating
system if needed.
You may not have to create backup diskettes for all system software. If Version Manager does not
list drivers or other system software products, they are available on the operating system software
CD-ROM or on backup diskettes delivered with expansion cards.
See Version Manager Help for information on creating system software backup diskettes. Visit the
Intergraph Computer Systems site on the World Wide Web and vendor bulletin boards for new and
updated drivers.

Creating a QFE Update Software Diskette

If the system requires Quick-Fix Engineering (QFE) update software, it is included in the system
software available for backup diskette creation. QFE update software contains fixes for operating
system problems or limitations, and is only shipped with the system if it is needed.
If QFE update software is shipped with the system, you should use Version Manager to create a
QFE update software diskette for use if you have to reinstall the operating system. See the
. file on the QFE diskette for information on the applicability and installation of QFE
README TXT
update software on your system.
