Tape Drive; Shutdown - Silicon Graphics IRIS Workstation User Manual

System Administration
set noglob

setenv TERM $temp[1]
setenv TERMCAP "$temp[2]"
unset temp
unset noglob
This causes init to read /etc/inittab and enable ports for network
login.
4. Edit the file /etc/ttytype. This file maps each device to a terminal type.
See Figure 6-6 for an example /etc/ttytype file. Each network port is
mapped to a device as in Table 6-2.
Each user 's Shell startup file should have tset commands that read
/etc/ttytype and set the terminal type. See Table 6-3 for example
commands. These should be included in each C Shell (csh (1)) user 's
.login file and each Bourne Shell (sh (1)) user 's .profile file. See
tset(1) and ttytype(4).
5. Login through the network to another host.

6.12 Tape Drive

The IRIS Workstation has an optional tape drive for backing up file systems on
the disks and for reading new software distributions. See Table 6-4 for a list of
tape drive specifications. In addition, the IRIS Workstation can be booted from
the tape drive in case the root file system is damaged beyond repair (see
Section 6.1).
The tape drive can be used with either tar(1) or cpio(1), the standard UNIX
archiving tools. cpio is slightly favored. The tape boot procedure mentioned in
Section 6.1 requires a tape in cpio format. Keep a copy of the root file system
on tape to ensure that there is a reliable copy in the event of a bad crash. See
Table 6-5 for some UNIX commands for using the tape drive. See tar(1) and
cpio(1).

6.13 Shutdown

The IRIS Workstation should not be left on indefinitely. However, since the
Monitor has a long warmup period, the IRIS Workstation should be left on
continuously during work hours.
