BACKUP/RESTORE PROCEDURE
Backup and restore procedures are described on the following pages.
! Notice:
If backup to floppy disk or CD-R is not possible, it is necessary to record AWS parameters manu-
ally so that they can be restored later (e.g., after an upgrade procedure). Refer to
- Back-up/Restore Procedure - AWS Parameters Manual Record Sheets
for a suit-
able form.
! Notice:
An AWS backup from a particular ADS version can only be restored to the same ADS version. Un-
less it is written in the Upgrade Procedure, it is
prohibited
to perform a backup and restore from
different ADS/IDC versions, since the file structure may vary between the different versions. If you
try to restore an ADS/IDC backup to a different version, you will corrupt the AWS/IDC installation
and cause system problems. If you are backing up a system before upgrading the ADS version,
record the AWS parameters manually so that they can be manually restored later (see
A003 - Back-up/Restore Procedure - AWS Parameters Manual Record Sheets
).
