LANtastic Network Operating System Version 4 Compatibility Bulletin
Product Reviewed: Interpreter TapeXchange 5.1
Classification: Tape Backup Software
Date: 08/18/1992 (TAPEXCH.WP)
Engineer: JHC
******************************
Compatibility Statement:
Interpreter TapeXchange tape unit and accompanying backup software has
been tested as compatible with LANtastic 4.x.
Product Overview:
The TapeXchange is a portable parallel printer port connected backup device.
It's uniqueness allows it to be used for file server backup, as well as be
available for all other backup needs (network or stand alone) since the tape
unit is not permanently attached to the file server and requires no interface
card to operate.
Installing TapeXchange:
Follow the manufactures recommended procedure for installation of TapeXchange.
The software is licensed to the respective portable tape unit and as such may
be installed on as many file servers or workstations as desired.
TapeXchange Usage Notes:
The TapeXchange tape unit and software allow the user to backup any physical
or redirected drive that is connected to the PC where the TapeXchange unit is
located. Therefore, to backup a disk drive on another machine requires that the
remote PC must be running the LANtastic SERVER program. As an example,
to backup the C: drive of a remote PC, enter the following:
NET LOGIN \\<Remote PC Machine Name> <Username> <Password>
NET USE T: \\<Remote PC Machine Name>\C-DRIVE
TXPLUS (Use the backup program and backup redirected drive T:)
NET UNUSE T:Open File Conflicts:
During the backup process, any open files are bypassed but are noted in a
status log. At the termination of the backup session, the user may optionally
review the log to determine which, if any, files were omitted from the backup.
Prior to backing up a disk drive containing the LANtastic control directory,
save the contents of the directory in a backup file by entering the command:
NET_MGR Backup C:\LANtasti.net <backup file name>
This can only be done without SERVER loaded.
