The DT6backup, DT6reload, DT7backup, and DT7reload commands have similar command
parameters to those used for the DTbackup and DTreload utilities, with variations accounting for the
connection method (TCP or BNS) and another variation due to the fact that the retr command on some
units requires parameters. Also, the back and retr commands on the unit require the name of an FTP
server and a login and password on the server. Alternatively, the –sa parameter may be given, which
invokes a new communication interface that bypasses back and retr.

Syntax: <dt6backup> –i [-v] [-d] [-V] [–p<pass>] [-P] [–t<TCP#>]
-sa | -sp<pass> | -sP
[–sn<server>] [–sl<login>]
<IP-ADDR> <filename>
Where:
-v Print

of
the Utility, then exit
-d
Connection Debug (verbose) print enable
-V
Abbreviated Debug (verbose) showing runtime progress of the utility
-p<pass>
Password for logging into the DT product (Default is “initial”)
-P
As an alternative to supplying the –p<pass> option, -P causes dt6backup to prompt
for the unit password when it is needed. The password is not echoed.
-i
Specifies that a TCP/IP connection is to be used
-t<TCP#>
Overrides the standard TCP/IP Port number (Default is 1023)
-sa
Allows direct file transfer to the host. This requires the minimum level or higher of the
platform software. If this option is used, none of the other –s options is needed.
-sn<server>
Name or IP address of the FTP server to receive the backup file. If this is not supplied,
the server running the utility is used as the FTP server.
-sl<login>
The login on the FTP server to receive the backup file. If this is not supplied, the user
running the utility is used as the login for FTP.
-sp<pass>
The password for the login on the FTP server to receive the backup file
-sP
As an alternative to using the –sp<pass> option, -sP causes dt6backup to prompt for
the FTP server password when it is needed. The password is not echoed.
<IP-ADDR>
The IP address of the DT product console
<filename>
The target filename on the server including its directory string, if necessary.
