Copying Files Between HP 3000 Systems

4. Copy the ﬁles from tape to disk. Use an asterisk to backreference the FILE command

describing the tape drive. Use SKIPEOF=,+1 to position the tape at the beginning of the

next ﬁle. For example,

>FROM=*T TO=FUTIL;NEW

EOF FOUND IN FROMFILE AFTER RECORD 297

298 RECORDS PROCESSED * * * 0 ERRORS

>FROM=*;TO=DUMPER;SKIPEOF=,+1

EOF FOUND IN FROMFILE AFTER RECORD 405

406 RECORDS PROCESSED * * * 0 ERRORS

>FROM=*;TO=SPOOLER;SKIPEOF=,+1

EOF FOUND IN FROMFILE AFTER RECORD 386

387 RECORDS PROCESSED * * * 0 ERRORS

NOTE

If the ﬁles are of varying structure, or have user labels or varying ﬁle codes, it

is better to use the MPE STORE and RESTORE commands to move ﬁles between

systems.
