Noticing files in Lyric:
I installed a fresh Lyric SYSOUT and created a backup on another volume.
I then copied several files, e.g. font files, to the hard disk and
saved my SYSOUT.
A problem seems to exist if something happens to your original SYSOUT,
i.e. when it cannot be booted. The same problem exists when using
(VMEM.PURE.STATE T).
-------
Scenario:
SYSOUT 1 SYSOUT 2
copied font files copied font files only
created lisp files
...
-------
If SYSOUT 1 can no longer be used and SYSOUT 2 is booted your files
that have been created in SYSOUT 1 will not be noticed in SYSOUT 2
using either FILEBROWSER.
The same problem exists when you set VMEM.PURE.STATE to T and then
RE-BOOT after doing a (LOGOUT T). Any files that you had copied to
to the hard disk prior to doing a (LOGOUT T) will not be found when
you re-boot.
This problem does not exist in KOTO, so why is it a problem in LYRIC
and is there a way to fix this problem?
I need a way to fix this problem since we usually run with the state
of (VMEM.PURE.STATE T).
We would appreciate any comments or answers to the problem stated above.
Thank you for any responses.
