Moving files

Logon to the system.

Use the REPORT command to display information about the account, MANUF, on the system volume. You should also use the LISTUSER command to display users and their capabilities for the @.MANUF users, and the LISTGROUP command to display group information. Refer to the MPE/iX Commands Reference Manual Volumes 1 and 2 (32650-90003 and 32650-90364) for more information.

Use the STORE command to copy the system files to tape by account. Refer to the Storing Files and Backing Up the System Reference Manual (32650-90140) manual for more information on storing files.

   :FILE T;DEV=TAPE

   :STORE @.@.MANUF; *T;SHOW

Use the REPORT command to make sure the account does not exist on the nonsystem volume set. Here ONVS refers to "on the specified volume set." ONVS can also be used to refer to the system volume set.

   :REPORT @.MANUF;ONVS=PROD_SET



   NON-EXISTENT ACCOUNT (CIERR 909)

   :

	NOTE: Remember to purge the account or group on the system volume first before using the RESTORE command with the CREATE option. The account structure will not be created correctly if the account or group exists on either the system or nonsystem volume set when the files are restored.

Use the PURGEACCT command to delete the account from the system volume set. If you were moving files by group, you would need to use the PURGEGROUP command to purge the group from the system volume set. Refer to the MPE/iX Commands Reference Manual Volumes 1 and 2 (32650-90003 and 32650-90364) for more information.

   :PURGEACCT MANUF

Use the RESTORE command with the CREATE option to restore the files from tape to the nonsystem volume set, PROD_SET.

   :RESTORE *T;@.@.MANUF;CREATE;SHOW;VOLSET=PROD_SET

This command creates the necessary group and account entries on both the system and nonsystem volume sets.

	NOTE: This command will only create user who are creators of the files restored. If there are any @.MANUF users that only read or modify files but do not create them, these users will not be created. Hence the use of the LISTUSER command in Step 2 of this procedure.

   RESTORE CREATED ACCOUNT "MANUF  "  MIRROR

   FILES RESTORED:

	CAUTION: Make sure you see the message verifying that the files were successfully restored. Any error that occurs during file restoration means that the files need to be restored again.

"MIRROR" on the screen tells you that the account, MANUF was created on both the system volume set and the nonsystem volume set.

Use the REPORT command to make sure the account now exists on the nonsystem volume set. Notice that the PUB group still resides on the system volume set.

	NOTE: The PUB group normally resides on the system volume set. When files are restored from tape, the PUB group's files will automatically be restored to the system volume set. If you want to change the home group of the PUB group, you will need to use the ALTGROUP command. Refer to the MPE/iX Commands Reference Manual Volumes 1 and 2 (32650-90003 and 32650-90364) for more information on this command.
