Replying to Requests

4.Read the request and follow the instructions on the screen.

5.Press F5 OK to continue.

Or, press F8 Cancel to postpone the reply until later.

NOTE

Some request dialog boxes have a Stop option. If you press F7 Stop, you

 

abort a task in progress (for example, backing up the system, or storing

 

a file on tape) and delete the request from the system.
