AREV Specific

Everyone,

I have a situtation that I am unsure of how to handle. Using AREV 3.1 on a PC (Single User)( Windows 95 ) , the following has occurred:

  1. User deleted AREV directory from dos prompt.

  2. The Backup on his PC  was successful in restoring system files.

  3. One main table (500,000 rows, 53 MB ) is copied daily onto a jaz drive.

What is the easiest way to copy the table from the jaz drive into the appropriate AREV subdirectory. When I tried, it will show the table using LISTTABLE command, but when attempting to access the temp I get the following message: "Table \APP is not Available".  The AREV error message is FS200. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

                    Thanks,

                      Mike

Mike,

I would run 'listvol xxx' from TCL, where xxx is the name of the volume your files are stored in. This will return the actual DOS file names of all the files in that volume (as stored in REVMEDIA). Overwrite the files (*.lk, *.ov) your interested in, keeping the same DOS name that is reported by listvol. You may want to restore the "!" and "dict" files as well - same method.
