Running CMS from a Floppy Diskette Backup
If the PC’s hard disk becomes damaged, you may still be able to manage calls
with CMS by running the CMS program from the "SYSTEM 25 CMS
SYSTEM WORKING COPY" diskette. In order to be able to do this, the
diskette must contain the latest version of the CMS shift configurations and
system tables. (The procedure for copying the needed files onto diskettes is
described in Section 4, “Backing Up Shift Configurations.”)
When CMS is run from a floppy diskette, you cannot store historical data,
run reports, or administer CMS. You should only run from a floppy diskette
temporarily while the hard disk problem is being corrected.
To run CMS from the floppy diskette:
