ZAPOBJ allows a removable read/write drive to be added to a system with existing mirrored or duplexed drives. ZAPOBJ.EXE is run against a .OBJ file using a .FIX parameter file. Parameter files containing temporary fixes (ie. *.FIX) are supplied for both 3.5" and 5.25" media. To implement ZAPOBJ: 1) Copy the files included with this patch to a working directory. 2) For a 3.5" media system, do the following: a) Copy SFT.OBJ to the working directory from the SFTOBJ subdirectory of your INSTALL diskette or hard drive directory. b) Copy TTS.OBJ to the working directory from the TTSOBJ subdirectory of your INSTALL diskette or hard drive directory. CAUTION: It is strongly recommended that you make backup copies of all .OBJ files to be patched in this process. c) Execute the following commands: ZAPOBJ SFT.OBJ NEWSFT.OBJ SFT.FIX ZAPOBJ TTS.OBJ NEWTTS.OBJ TTS.FIX If ZAPOBJ is successful, a message will be issued to that effect. d) Copy NEWSFT.OBJ and NEWTTS.OBJ to the corresponding SFTOBJ and TTSOBJ subdirectories under INSTALL. Rename them to SFT.OBJ and TTS.OBJ respectively. OR For a 5.25" media system, do the following: a) Copy SFT_1.OBJ to the working directory from the SFTOBJ subdirectory of your INSTALL diskette or hard drive directory. b) Copy TTS_1.OBJ to the working directory from the TTSOBJ subdirectory of your INSTALL diskette or hard drive directory. c) Copy SFT_2.OBJ and TTS_2.OBJ to the working directory from the OSOBJ subdirectory of your INSTALL diskette or hard drive directory. CAUTION: It is strongly recommended that you make backup copies of all .OBJ files to be patched in this process. d) Execute the following commands: ZAPOBJ SFT_1.OBJ NEWSFT_1.OBJ SFT_1.FIX ZAPOBJ TTS_1.OBJ NEWTTS_1.OBJ TTS_1.FIX ZAPOBJ SFT_2.OBJ NEWSFT_2.OBJ SFT_2.FIX ZAPOBJ TTS_2.OBJ NEWTTS_2.OBJ TTS_2.FIX If ZAPOBJ is successful, a message will be issued to that effect. e) Copy NEWSFT_1.OBJ and NEWTTS_1.OBJ to the corresponding SFTOBJ and TTSOBJ subdirectories under INSTALL. Rename them to SFT_1.OBJ and TTS_1.OBJ respectively. f) Copy NEWSFT_2.OBJ and NEWTTS_2.OBJ to the OSOBJ subdirectory under INSTALL. Rename them to SFT_2.OBJ and TTS_2.OBJ respectively. 3) Execute NETGEN and ensure that the "Link/Configure NetWare Operating System" option is selected and that NET$OS.EXE is copied to your network drive during "NetWare Installation". 4) Boot the server. The system will indicate that the fix has been applied by displaying the message "Netware Release for PTF00001". CAUTION: Implement this fix on a low-use or non-production server before implementing it on all SFT NetWare v2.15c servers in your installation. ÿ
