LANtastic Network Operating System Version 5 Compatibility Bulletin
Product Reviewed: Interpreter TapeXchange 5.1
Classification: Tape Backup Software
Date: 03/15/1993
Engineer: JHC
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Compatibility Statement:
Interpreter TapeXchange tape unit and accompanying backup software
has been tested as compatible with LANtastic versions 4.xx and
5.xx.
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.
