STORE
@ indicates that the source value for that component should be used. An
HFS pathname which ends in a / is considered an HFS directory and no
wildcard characters are allowed in the filename.
The RENAME option must be specified if the targetname is used.
storefile The name of the device to which the stored files are to be written. This
may be any magnetic tape or DDS device. This file must be
backreferenced, by using an asterisk (*). You must do this by using a File
equation before invoking STORE.
A message is displayed on the system console requesting the operator to
mount the tape identified by the storefile parameter and to allocate the
device.
The storefile can now reference a remote device. For example, if you issue
the following commands, NM Store will store all files to the specified
remote device.
:FILE REMOTE;DEV=REMSYS#TAPE
:STORE @;*REMOTE;SHOW
NM STORE will store all files to the specified remote device. Although the
initial tape mount request will appear on the remote console, all of the
STORE console messages will be displayed on the local console. Currently,
labeled tapes and Magneto-optical devices cannot be used for remote
backup.
A message is displayed on the system console requesting the operator to
mount the tape identified by the storefile parameter and to allocate the
device.
If storefile is not supplied and the STORESET option is not used, then STORE
creates a default storefile name. The default file name is the user's logon
username. No file equation is used.
Sequential and parallel devices are specified with the STORESET option.
Similarly, magneto-optical devices are specified using the MOSET option.
Storefile should not be specified when using STORESET or MOSET.
If using TurboSTORE/iX 7x24 True-Online Backup, a disk file can also be
specified with a file equation for storefile. An example of such a file equation
would be:
:FILE MYDISC=DISCBACK.DAILY.BACKUP;DEV=DISC
Note that DEV=DISC must be specified for STORE to recover files from disk
backups. All other information in the file equation will be ignored by
STORE. STORE creates a binary, fixed record file containing the backup
data. This disk file can be restored using the same file equation for
RESTORE.
By default, STORE creates the disk file with a 4Gig limit. If the data being
stored exceeds this, or an existing file with a smaller limit is specified for
the backup, then STORE will create and write to additional disk files. It
will append the "reel" number to the disk file name originally specified. For
