    Optimizing and Protecting Hard Drives ‐ Chapter # 9 Amy Hissom Key Terms antivirus (AV) software — Utility programs that prevent infection or scan a system to detect and remove viruses. McAfee Associates’ VirusScan and Norton AntiVirus are two popular AV packages. backup — An extra copy of a file, used in the event that the original becomes damaged or destroyed. boot sector virus — An infectious program that can replace the boot program with a modified, infected version of the boot command utilities, often causing boot and data retrieval problems. buffer — A temporary memory area where data is kept before being written to a hard drive or sent to a printer, thus reducing the number of writes to the devices. chain — A group of clusters used to hold a single file. child, parent, grandparent backup method — A plan for backing up and reusing tapes or removable disks by rotating them each day (child), week (parent), and month (grandparent). cross-linked clusters — Errors caused when more than one file points to a cluster, and the files appear to share the same disk space, according to the file allocation table. defragment — To “optimize” or rewrite a file to a disk in one contiguous chain of clusters, thus speeding up data retrieval. differential backup — Backup method that backs up only files that have changed or have been created since the last full backup. When recovering data, only two backups are needed: the full backup and the last differential backup. disk cache — A method whereby recently retrieved data and adjacent data are read into memory in advance, anticipating the next CPU request.

  • F.A.Q. Series ROM-DOS TM
    21520 30th Drive SE #110 Bothell, WA 98021 USA Tel: (425) 951-8086 Fax: (425) 951-8095 [email protected] [email protected] www.datalight.com TM ROM-DOS F.A.Q. Series Question: Assuming they don't want FAT32, Long Filename support, or Sockets, why should my customer upgrade to the newest ROM-DOS? Answer: Since our first FAT32 and LFN release 4.00.1091, there have been several improvements to the core ROM- DOS kernel. This core code is used primarily for our DOS 6.22 compatible compilations, and then extended in the case of a FAT32 or Long Filename build. The 4.00.1091 release is also a new code base and there will be no further upgrades to the previous DOS 6.22 code. In order to obtain new features, fixes, and support a customer must upgrade to release 4.00.1091 or greater. Along with the performance enhancements for both size and speed, several corrections have been made to the ROM-DOS kernel. These include stack and memory issues, disk access issues, and compatibility with the former market leader in DOS. Most of the ROM-DOS utilities have also been improved for size and speed, along with bug fixes. The major changes happened with the XCOPY, HIMEM, MSCDEX, CHKDSK, FDISK and FORMAT utilities. In the realm of international support, the Euro was added to the keyboard and display driver code. ROM- DOS and PC-DOS 2000 are the only non-GUI operating systems to support the Euro. Finally, new ROM-DOS utilities have been added.

  • TRSDOS 6.2 to LS-DOS 6.3.0 Manual Update
    LS-DOSÔ 6.3 UPDATE FOR TRSDOSâ 6.2.X The LS-DOS 6.3 release is an upgrade for the TRSDOS 6.2 operating system. Several important changes have been made to extend and enhance the operating system and its utilities. The date ranging has been expanded to accept dates through the year 1999. Files will now carry a modification time as well as a date. The DATECONV/CMD program is provided to translate version 6.2 or earlier disks to the 6.3 style dating. The user password has been eliminated from the system. The owner password still remains. The library command ID was added to display a customer service number. Several enhancements have been made to BASIC. The new DISKCOPY/CMD program will duplicate 5" double density floppy disks. Because the LS-DOS 6.3 update is a series of enhancements to TRSDOS 6.2, the primary documentation remains the 6.2 manual and Technical Reference manual. If you have a version of TRSDOS earlier than 6.2, you can obtain the manuals from Radio Shack under the catalog numbers 26-0316 (TRSDOS Version 6 [6.2 DOS manual and disk]), 26-2110 (Model 4/4D [6.2] Technical Reference Manual), or 26-1117 (6.2 DOS manual only). This documentation should be treated as an addendum to the TRSDOS 6.2 information. LS-DOS 6.3 installation instructions Before performing the upgrade, it is recommended that you make several backup copies of the 6.3 master disk. The simplest way to do this is to boot your system using the 6.3 diskette, insert a blank diskette to receive the copy in drive 1, and type the command: DISKCOPY :0 :1 When the copy finishes, you can insert another destination diskette and make another copy.

  • This Document Explains How to Copy Ondemand5 Data to Your Hard Drive
    Copying Your Repair DVD Data To Your Hard Drive Introduction This document explains how to copy OnDemand5 Repair data to your hard drive, and how to configure your OnDemand software appropriately. The document is intended for your network professional as a practical guide for implementing Mitchell1’s quarterly updates. The document provides two methods; one using the Xcopy command in a DOS window, and the other using standard Windows Copy and Paste functionality. Preparing your System You will need 8 Gigabytes of free space per DVD to be copied onto a hard drive. Be sure you have the necessary space before beginning this procedure. Turn off screen savers, power down options or any other program that may interfere with this process. IMPORTANT NOTICE – USE AT YOUR OWN RISK: This information is provided as a courtesy to assist those who desire to copy their DVD disks to their hard drive. Minimal technical assistance is available for this procedure. It is not recommended due to the high probability of failure due to DVD drive/disk read problems, over heating, hard drive write errors and memory overrun issues. This procedure is very detailed and should only be performed by users who are very familiar with Windows and/or DOS commands. Novice computers users should not attempt this procedure. Copying Repair data from a DVD is a time-consuming process. Depending on the speed of your processor and/or network, could easily require two or more hours per disk. For this reason, we recommend that you perform the actual copying of data during non-business evening or weekend hours.

Deltree is the procedure used by the delete command (BX.8.07)· to delete an entry which points to a non-empty directory. In order to delete svch an entry delete calls deltree to delete the subtree beneath the entry. The method used in deltree can be easily adapted for other tasks which are repeated at all nodes of some tree structure in the file system. Usaoe call deltree (path, failsw); path is the path name of a directory. Fails\-J is.a 1-bit switch indicating on return that some entry of path could not be deleted. Oeltree starts deleting entries of the tree structure beneath ,path at the end nodes (i.e., directories_ that have no directories inferior to them). Deltree reaches these end nodes by constructing a path name of a directory · . immediately inferior to path and then calling itself recursively with that path name until the end'nbdes are r~ached~ Whendeltree has deleted all the entries in an end-node directory which it can delete~ it returns to its caller. )me lementat ion ca 11 .de ltree (path, fail sw); del path char(')'<), f,:lf lsw bit (1); De 1 tree first obtai i'IS the current. ca landar clock time using the PL/I built-in abnormal function ''c1ock_11 .'
