HP Stage/iX Commands

NOPACK—All files belonging to the staging area are simply copied to the Export directory
(/SYS/hpstage/export/). From here the files can be moved to the Import directory
(/SYS/hpstage/import/) on the target machine in any way you choose. The staging area can then be
accepted into that HP Stage/iX environment via the IMPORT ;NOUNPACK command.
TAPE—The staging area directory is written to tape via STORE. The staging area can then be accepted into
the target system’s HP Stage/iX environment via the IMPORT ;TAPE command.
PACK—The staging area is packaged into a single file in the Export directory under the name of the
staging area (/SYS/hpstage/export/stage_name). This file can then be moved to the Import directory
(/SYS/hpstage/import/) on the target system using either tape or a network transport utility (for
example, FTP) and accepted into the HP Stage/iX environment via IMPORT ;UNPACK.
Example
STAGEMAN> EXPORT STAGE1;PACK
