02/12/81 carry_load Syntax: carry_load tape_number {-control_args} Function: Loads a carry tape at its target site. Arguments: tape_number is the identifier of the tape to be read. Control arguments: -comment STR, -com STR prints a message STR at the operator's console when asking for the tape specified by the tape_number argument or by the previous -next_vol control argument. This comment can be used to specify a tape identifier at the loading site when it is different from the identifier of the same tape at the sending site. (See "Examples" below.) -copy_dir PATH, -cpd PATH specifies a directory PATH under which to retrieve copies of any files or subtrees that cannot be loaded in place due to lack of access or quota. The default directory for copies is: >ddd>carry_dir>copies -force, -fc causes the tape to be loaded even if it is more than five days old. By default, an old tape is not loaded and an error message is printed. -next_vol STR, -nxv STR specifies the identifier STR of a continuation tape when more than one tape was written by an invocation of carry_dump. Multiple occurrences of this control argument are allowed. Note that it should only be used for continuation tapes. If the tape identifier of a continuation tape is different at the loading site than at the sending site, the -comment control argument should be used after this argument. -queue_dir PATH, -qd PATH specifies the pathname PATH of the carry queue's parent directory at the sending site, if different from >ddd>carry_dir. Notes: When a request cannot be loaded in place due to access or quota, a copy is loaded in the directory >ddd>carry_dir>copies. This directory name replaces the first two levels of the entry's pathname. For example, if the entry: >udd>Demo>JRSmith>tx.archive cannot be reloaded, the retrieved copy is named: >ddd>carry_dir>copies>JRSmith>tx.archive Examples: carry_load 50204 -nxv 50011 -nxv 50012 loads 3 tapes (written by one invocation of carry_dump) in the order 50204, 50011, 50012. carry_load 50207 -com TX653 -nxv 50201 -com TX647 loads two tapes written by "carry_dump 50204" at the sending site but for which the tapes are registered at the loading site as TX653 and TX647. ----------------------------------------------------------- Historical Background This edition of the Multics software materials and documentation is provided and donated to Massachusetts Institute of Technology by Group BULL including BULL HN Information Systems Inc. as a contribution to computer science knowledge. This donation is made also to give evidence of the common contributions of Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Bell Laboratories, General Electric, Honeywell Information Systems Inc., Honeywell BULL Inc., Groupe BULL and BULL HN Information Systems Inc. to the development of this operating system. Multics development was initiated by Massachusetts Institute of Technology Project MAC (1963-1970), renamed the MIT Laboratory for Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence in the mid 1970s, under the leadership of Professor Fernando Jose Corbato. Users consider that Multics provided the best software architecture for managing computer hardware properly and for executing programs. Many subsequent operating systems incorporated Multics principles. Multics was distributed in 1975 to 2000 by Group Bull in Europe , and in the U.S. by Bull HN Information Systems Inc., as successor in interest by change in name only to Honeywell Bull Inc. and Honeywell Information Systems Inc. . ----------------------------------------------------------- Permission to use, copy, modify, and distribute these programs and their documentation for any purpose and without fee is hereby granted,provided that the below copyright notice and historical background appear in all copies and that both the copyright notice and historical background and this permission notice appear in supporting documentation, and that the names of MIT, HIS, BULL or BULL HN not be used in advertising or publicity pertaining to distribution of the programs without specific prior written permission.
