Transferring a Rack Using TransferĆPlus

Use the following procedure to transfer racks using TransferĆPlus. If

you are transferring to diskettes, you will be prompted for additional

diskettes, if needed. Diskettes can be formatted or, to save time, you

can use preĆformatted diskettes. Diskettes do not have to be blank.

Figure 5.22 illustrates the TransferĆPlus dialog box.
Step 1.

Select the rack(s) to be transferred from the racks list.

Step 2.

Select TransferĆPlus from the Rack menu. The

TransferĆPlus dialog box is displayed, with the selected

racks listed.

Step 3.

Enter information for the following fields. Some fields

contain default entries. If you do not change these fields,

the defaults will be used.
Source/Destination Ć If you are transferring to or from

floppy diskettes, you must also select floppy drive A or B.
If you want to transfer to or from another AutoMax library,

select More Options and then enter the drive and AutoMax

library name.
Format Ć Check this box if you want to format the diskettes

before transferring the files. You can also enter Format

Qualifiers (DOS FORMAT switches).
Rack(s) Ć The racks selected when the TransferĆPlus

command was called will be listed. You can edit this list. If

you are transferring from diskette, or from another

AutoMax library, enter the racks to be transferred.
Newer files only Ć Check this box to transfer only the files

that have more recent dates than those files (with the

same name) existing on the diskette from a previous

transfer.
Options Ć Check the desired options.
Rack configuration only Ć Transfer only the rack database

and the rack documentation file.
Object files Ć Transfer the compiled application task object

files, parameter object files, and the rack configuration

object file(s).
CrossĆreference files Ć Transfer the crossĆreference files.

Step 4.

Select Help for information about the TransferĆPlus

procedure, Cancel to return to the System Configurator

without transferring a rack, or OK to begin the transfer. You

will be prompted for diskettes as needed.

A message is displayed when the transfer is complete. You can then

transfer additional racks.
