6-12 Chapter 6: Memory Dump
Either of the following tones are sounded when a diskette is
successfully added to the set of disks composing a memory dump
image:
•
The Extended tone/Success tune is played, indicating the diskette
has been successfully written to and that another diskette is
required.
•
The Success tune is repeatedly playing, indicating the dump
process is complete and the current diskette is the last disk in the
set.
Moving the Files to Hard Disk and Reassembling
Once the memory dump is complete, you have a set of diskettes, each
with a single binary file dumpinfo.xxx. The next step is to move all files
on the diskettes to a hard disk. Copy the files to the hard disk using the
standard DOS copy command. The copy command MUST have the
binary file option /b specified each time it is used.
Note:
The amount of hard disk space required to assemble the file is
twice the memory dump image size (individual files plus composite
image).
After the files are on the hard disk, the DOS utility assemble.exe is run
to build the memory dump image from the individual files. The
individual diskette files will be left on the hard disk and must be
removed manually.
Follow these steps when reassembling the diskettes onto the PC:
1.
Change to a directory on the PC that has no other dumpinfo.xxx
files. This is important to prevent files from different memory
dumps being intermixed.
2.
Copy each diskette’s dumpinfo.xxx file to the hard disk using copy
/b a:\dumpinfo.*.
3.
Reassemble all individual component files into the memory dump
image by running assemble.exe.
Note:
After assembling the files the image is reassembled and
ready for analysis by NCR.
