SYSGEN AND SYSGEN-RELATED PROCEDURES

Erasing a system disk

You can use the ERASE command to remove all files from the LPS system disks. Disks may be erased when:

•

•

A new system is generated from a SST.

A new version of software must be installed on a disk which has first been formatted or erased.

Note: The ERASE command saves the existing MBAIS and bad block files; sector check is not performed. To erase all four disks takes less than 1 minute. The FORMAT command deletes all files except the MBAIS file, formats the disk, performs a sector check, and flags any bad blocks.

Disk erasing summary

Use the following steps to erase a disk:

Step 1. Back up any user files residing on the disk to be erased

Step 2. Load the sysgen processor into main memory.

Step 3. Invoke the ERASE command.

Step 4. Select the disks to be erased.

Step 5. When the erase procedure is complete, continue the full sysgen process.

Steps to erase a disk

Refer to steps 1 through 11 of the full sysgen procedures for the format procedures. Instead of entering FORMAT in step 4, enter ERASE. The Erase procedure mimics the format procedure with the exceptions of “erase” appearing in some places where format had been displayed.
