Managing the AMASS File System

Example

Step 1. Log in as root.

#su root

Step 2. To have drive two write to block six, enter the path, utility, and options similar to what is shown in the following example:

#cd /usr/amass/utils

#mediawrite 2 6

AMASS writes the following text to block number 6:

A SECTOR OF DATA FOR BLOCK 6

Step 3. If a hardware error occurs, refer to your hardware manuals.

Step 4. To verify the mediawrite was successful, use the mediaread utility to read block six.

# mediaread 2 6
