TECHNICAL BULLETIN Bulletin #1-267 Date: April 4, 1990 NetWare Version 2.15C Update Script Files The current NetWare v2.15C Update Kit requires a workstation with two diskette drives of the same media. The update kit will only update floppy diskettes. Several script files have been written to allow the update to be performed without this diskette drive requirement. These files are available on NetWire. Please note that you must have a valid COMSPEC statement in your workstation environment that points to a device other than drive A: or B:. This is explained further in technical bulletin #261. The following is a list of the script files and a description of what each file does: * HDS525.ARC This file is used to temporarily copy the contents of the update diskettes to hard disk (drive C by default). It will prompt the user for the various diskettes that need to be downloaded; it will also clean up the files and directories on the hard disk when it is finished. (This file is for SFT or Advanced NetWare 5.25" media only.) * HDS35.ARC This file performs the same function as HDS525.ARC, but is for SFT and Advanced NetWare 3.5" media only. * HDE525.ARC This file performs the same function as HDS525.ARC, but is for ELS NetWare Level II 5.25" media only. * HDE35.ARC This file performs the same function as HDS525.ARC, but is for ELS NetWare Level II 3.5" media only. * ULS525.ARC This file is used to copy the contents of the update diskettes to the network directory structure created by NETGEN preparatory to network generation (F:\NETWARE by default). This file allows the user to use the network generation method after the update procedure is completed. (This file is for SFT or Advanced NetWare 5.25" media only.) * ULS35.ARC This file performs the same function as ULS525.ARC, but is for SFT and Advanced NetWare 3.5" media only. * ULE525.ARC This file performs the same function as ULS525.ARC, but is for ELS NetWare Level II 5.25" media only. * ULE35.ARC This file performs the same function as ULS525.ARC, but is for ELS NetWare Level II 3.5" media only. Each archive includes a script file and a batch file. The script files replace the REVC.xxx script files used by RED.EXE. Each script file has a built-in "readme" that explains how the file is to be used. Use the batch file to initiate the UPDATE procedure.
