Required levels of expertise Backup and Restore The DSPERU tool was designed to be easy to use. However, some assumptions have been made regarding the level of knowledge required to perform various setup, backup, and recovery tasks. Setting up the tool for use on a system and performing a recovery requires some level of comfort with entering UNIX commands. The commands are not complex, but if you have no UNIX experience, you may require assistance initially. To initiate a backup, you must know your system root password and how to open a Terminal window. The following levels of expertise are required to perform the necessary functions: • Set up DSPERU tool on system: Customer systems administrator, Xerox system analyst or service representative. • Initiate DSPERU backup: Printer operator, customer system administrator, Xerox analyst or service representative • Initiate DSPERU recovery: Customer system administrator, Xerox system analyst or service representative Installing DSPERU on your DocuSP controller 1. Insert the diskette containing the scripts into the diskette drive. 2. Open a Terminal window and logon as root user. 3. Enter volcheck to mount the diskette. 4. Enter sh /floppy/floppy0/dsperu_setup to launch the setup script. 5. Eject the diskette by entering cd; eject. The setup script does the following: • Creates the directory /export/home/xrxusr/backup. • Copies the btt file to the /export/home/xrxusr directory. • Copies the dsp_backup_run and dsp_dump files to the backup subdirectory. If DSPERU was previously set up on your system, an error message may be displayed when it tries to perform the setup again. System Guide 2-9

Backup and Restore
System Guide

Required levels of expertise
The DSPERU tool was designed to be easy to use. However,
some assumptions have been made regarding the level of
knowledge required to perform various setup, backup, and
recovery tasks.
Setting up the tool for use on a system and performing a
recovery requires some level of comfort with entering UNIX
commands. The commands are not complex, but if you have
no UNIX experience, you may require assistance initially.
To initiate a backup, you must know your system root
password and how to open a Terminal window.
The following levels of expertise are required to perform the
necessary functions:
Set up DSPERU tool on system: Customer systems
administrator, Xerox system analyst or service
representative.
Initiate DSPERU backup:
Printer operator, customer
system administrator, Xerox analyst or service
representative
Initiate DSPERU recovery: Customer system
administrator, Xerox system analyst or service
representative
Installing DSPERU on your DocuSP controller
1.
Insert the diskette containing the scripts into the diskette
drive.
2.
Open a Terminal window and logon as root user.
3. Enter
volcheck
to mount the diskette.
4. Enter
sh /floppy/floppy0/dsperu_setup
to launch the
setup script.
5.
Eject the diskette by entering
cd; eject
.
The setup script does the following:
Creates the directory
/export/home/xrxusr/backup
.
Copies the
btt
file to the
/export/home/xrxusr
directory.
Copies the
dsp_backup_run
and
dsp_dump
files to the
backup subdirectory.
If DSPERU was previously set up on your system, an error
message may be displayed when it tries to perform the setup
again.
