information. Provide the appropriate information
for your system type. Continue to read and
respond to all prompts. When the conversion
process is complete, the following message
displays:
REVISION K.0 UPDATE PROCEDURE
COMPLETE
17. When the conversion is complete, mark the old

or pre-release K.0) and save it for at least 4
weeks. The old tape can be used for a system
backup after that time.
18. Run
$SHUTUP
and then reboot the system.
After the system has been booted, run basic
tests to verify that the conversion process has
been successful and that Revision K.0 is
working properly. You should make a backup
using the [3,352] TAPEBACK command file as
soon as possible after verification of system
operation is complete.
19. The original Revision K.0 tape should be
returned to the Branch where it can be used for
additional conversions for this system type to
Revision K.0.
20. After the K.0 installation is complete, BRU DU0:
to tape and then BRU the tape back to DU0: to
recover contiguous space.
