temp. Copy
Here you tell FDREQ, whether to temp. copy files
from CD-ROM or not.
If yes, FDRSETUP asks for the destination
directory and creates it, if necessary.
CD-ROM-drives in the PC will be recognized by
FDRSETUP, but have to be entered after all in
the Setup.
Before temp. copying, FDREQ checks the free space
on the destination directory. In case, there is
not enough free space, FDREQ sends the file
directly from CD-ROM.
-more-
temp. copying makes sense on systems, where many
Nodes share CD-ROM-drives, otherwise there would
be long periods of waiting.
In systems with one or few nodes this copying
makes few sense, because the doing of the copying
also needs some time.
