Compact your backup space
The script should compact your
backup space on our backup server but leave all your current files
definitely untouched. It is thus very secure and nothing can happen,
except that the script would not start. It is also unproblematic to
interrupt the script while it is running. In effect, the script should
reduce the amount of space occupied by some files you deleted
a while ago. If you are confident that you did not remove sets
of files by accident in the past, please feel free to start the script via

at any time, and especially, when lamps are becoming yellow or red.

Gleich in welcher Applikation man ein ps-file erzeugen will,
der Vorgang ist derselbe:
- file - print - print to file -> set working path and file name
- file - print - setup -> set the right printer driver (e.g. Fiery CLC 700/800)
- file - print - setup - properties -> check settings about the "new" printer driver
Die noetigen Informationen ueber den richtigen printer driver (Fiery,
Pictro, etc),
welches Format etc. erhaelt man unter der home page von vpp:

- Vorbereitungen
- Wenn nötig "Write Protection" aufheben, indem der Schieber beim Band
nach rechts geschoben wird (Vgl. Anleitung)
- Untere Klappe hochheben und Band oben einschieben,
dann untere Klappe wieder senken.
"Tape in Use" muss nun konstant leuchten, ansonsten allenfalls
das Band nochmals herausnehmen und wieder einschieben!
- Density Select: gewünschte Komprimierung wählen
- Backupbefehl
- Um ein Backup des gesamten Home Directory's zu machen:
cd $HOME;
tar cvf /dev/rmt/0 . (Der Punkt gehört zum Kommando).
- oder als Batchjob (inkl. Angabe über die Grösse
des Homes und der benötigten Zeit):
cd $HOME;
batch << !
du -sk
timex tar cvf /dev/rmt/0 .
!
- Kontrolle
- Um zu überprüfen, was alles auf das Band geschrieben wurde:
tar xvf /dev/rmt/0
- Tapes
Es gibt Tapes mit verschiedenen Kapazitäten:
- Typ III: 10-20 GByte, Kosten ca. 50-60 Sfr pro Band
- Typ IV : 20-40 GByte, Kosten ca. 100-120 Sfr pro Band

Proper eps-files generated by powerpoint
Print on file by selecting the polyphys-p03 printer. Then
view the ps-file via ghostview, and convert to eps. This
file is ideally suited to be used by latex.

Remarks on the Generation of PDF Files:
in case the sepp-version ps2pdf (or dvi2pdf) fails.
Authors using LaTeX2e need to run dvips to generate a
Postscript version of their file. PDF files can be generated by
applying software tools based on the Ghostscript package (http://www.cs.wisc.edu/~ghost/).
These are e.g. dvipdf for PDF file generation directly
from the .dvi file, or ps2pdf, which allows a file
conversion from Postscript to PDF format. On-line distiller
programs based on the Ghostscript package do also exist, see e.g.
http://www.ps2pdf.com/ for an
on-line version of ps2pdf based on the current Ghostscript
package AFPL Ghostscript 6.50.
Postscript file generation from MSWord is done by first
selecting a Postscript printer, and then make a
``Print to File''. For PDF file generation, again a distiller
program like ps2pdf may be applied. In order to directly
generate PDF files from Windows / Macintosh programs, one of the
(commercially available) Adobe Acrobat Toolkits, Acrobat Distiller
or PDFWriter may be used.
