Fujitsu FMW4503TS128A01 manual Create Option, Info Partition, Reformat Partition

Table 3-20. PHDISK Command Line Options (Continued)

Option	Parameters	Description
/INFO	/PARTITION	Displays data about the save-to-disk partition.
	/FILE	Displays data about the save-to-disk file.
/REFORMAT	/PARTITION	Reformat the save-to-disk partition. This option is typically used if a
		hard disk error is detected in the save-to-disk partition.

The example below shows the type of information that is displayed when PHDISK is called without a command line option. This example displays both the save to disk FILE INFORMATION and save-to-disk PARTITION INFORMATION headers. These headers are displayed only when both a save-to-disk partition and a save to disk file exist. (The USAGE and OPTIONS headers are displayed in several screens displayed by PHDISK).

Note: When a save-to-disk partition and file both exist, save-to-disk data is stored in the partition first and any excess data is stored in the save-to-disk file. It is recommended that you configure your system to use either a save-to-disk partition exclusively or a save-to-disk file exclusively. This ensures that your save-to-disk data is stored in contiguous disk space.

Save to Disk file information:

Your Save to Disk file is named C:\SAVE2DSK.BIN and has a size of xxxx KBytes. It has System, Hidden, and Read Only attributes.

Save to Disk partition information:

Partition starts at sector xxxxx (head xx, cylinder xx, sector xx) Partition size: xxxx KBytes total

Current System Status:

You currently need a Save to Disk area of xxxx KBytes. PhDisk will also require additional overhead and will automatically calculate the actual required space.

You have both a file and a partition. Save to Disk will default to file. Either delete the file, or the partition.

Usage:PHDISK [options]
/CREATE	(/FILE	or /PARTITION)	-- Create		STD file or	partition
/DELETE	(/FILE	or /PARTITION)	-- Delete		existing STD file or partition.
/INFO			--	Information on STD		disk area(s)
/REFORMAT /PARTITION			--	Reformat existing STD partition

This utility configures a hard disk to utilize the Phoenix NoteBIOS 4.0 Save to Disk feature. Please refer to your user manual for information regarding Save to Disk.

CREATE Option

The CREATE option measures the amount of on-board memory, and partitions a segment of the hard disk drive large enough to store all the data that might be there. The CREATE option formats the save-to-disk partition or file, marking bad spots on the hard disk drive as they are found.
