Checklist J. Reinstall Using a CSLT
If your system has a major system level problem or crash, and you need to reinstall the operating system, use
this task checklist. Use your most recent CSLT tape to:
• Reinstall your current system software version level
CAUTION This reinstall process will DESTROY all existing files on the system.
A reinstallation is performed when you have had a major system level problem or crash, and
you are replacing the current operating system with the same version of the system software.
If your system is running, perform a system backup before you start the reinstall process. You
may need to use it to recover some of your files.
Print a copy of this checklist for each system that you are reinstalling.
