9710 (StorageTek) Addendum for NonStop Servers
Addendum to the StorageTek™ 9710 for the Tandem Environment 
The 5155/5159 Digital Linear Tape CRE and NonStop Kernel 
9-55
Examples 
All examples assume that DSM/TC will not be used. Examples 1 
and 2 show CLASS TAPECATALOG DEFINEs specified for 
BACKUP operations. 
Example 1 
This example for a labeled tape specifies a CLASS 
TAPECATALOG DEFINE named “=BACK” with compression on 
(IDRC). The USE OUT attribute specifies to write the file to tape. 
The BACKUP command copies all the files in the $DATA volume 
to tape. The LISTALL option lists the names of all files backed up, 
and the NOUNLOAD option directs BACKUP to rewind the final 
tape and leave it online when the BACKUP operation is completed. 
1>ADD DEFINE =BACK, CLASS TAPECATALOG, LABELS BACKUP, & 
CATALOG OFF, COMPRESSION IDRC, USE OUT 
  2>BACKUP =BACK, $DATA.*.*, LISTALL, NOUNLOAD 
Example 2 
This example for an unlabeled tape specifies a CLASS 
TAPECATALOG DEFINE named “=UNLABEL” with 
compression off. For unlabeled tape, a device must be specified in 
the DEFINE (in this example, DEVICE $TAPE1). Because it is an 
unlabeled tape, the LABELS attribute has the value OMITTED. 
  3>ADD DEFINE =UNLABEL, CLASS TAPECATALOG, & LABELS  
OMITTED, CATALOG OFF, DEVICE $TAPE1, & COMPRESSION 
OFF 
  4>BACKUP =UNLABEL, $DATA.*.*, LISTALL, NOUNLOAD
