Use AUTOINST to restore the information contained on the FOS and
SUBSYS tapes, set up the necessary accounting structure and
creates a customized system load tape (SLT).
The fundamental operating system (FOS) and subsystem (SUBSYS) tapes contain programs and utilities for performing specific functions such as compiling programs, copying files, or editing text. You must restore these programs, located on tapes provided with MPE iX, before you can use them.
AUTOINST requires minimal intervention beyond mounting the tapes. It issues messages as it performs its tasks. The messages prompt for any necessary intervention and report on the successful completion of the various procedures.
