Backups are on 64 Gig USB Sticks (1-6 for the time being).
Updating is from a batch file C:\BAT\BackN.bat
BackN calls multiple batch files to backup to each USB stick from 1 to 6.
The Sticks are labelled JIF_BACK_01 to JIF_BACK_06. The batch file verifies that
you have the correct USB stick inserted for the requested backup operation, preventing
accidental operations.
The USB must be Z: which can be accomplished manually from
Computer Management
Disk Management
Change Drive Letter (of the USB drive you want to make drive Z:)
There is a batch file called MakeZ which uses Dispart utility
and calls
MakeZ.txt
SELECT VOLUME 7
ASSIGN LETTER=Z
however MakeZ assumes the USB stick you inserted is VOLUME 7. It would be prudent to
verify the inserted volume BEFORE executing the MakeZ batch file.
Verifying the volume is as follows
Diskpart
List Volume
will display all the volumes on your system. Verify that the inserted USB is actually
Volume 7 before executing MakeZ.bat. Of course you can modify MakeZ.txt to the correct
volume. The label of each drive is clearly displayed so you can't go wrong.
To exit DISKPART enter EXIT which will return you to your operating system.
If you want to learn about DISKPART by all means take some time to familiarise
yourself with this POWERFUL utility.
After all this — BackN allows to select the appropriate operation,
calling the appropriate batch file from BackMyData01.bat to BackMyData06.bat as
well as MakeZ.bat. Obviously if you know which USB you wish to update you
can mount the stick, make sure it is Z: and execute the appropriate BackMyData?? batch file.
