The Copy Files option copies one database file to the other, in effect, copies DB0.DEF
to DB1.DEF, or vice versa. This may be desirable after making substantial changes to
the system configuration, so that the technician copy and the daily back-up copy of the
database are identical.
Copying the file from one to the other is preferable to saving the database twice, since
making changes to the system database are not prohibited during the copy process.
Note that the copy process cannot be used to copy a database file from one Flash card
to another - only from one file to another on the same Flash card.
The copying procedure is only possible from the Active side of a Hot Standby
system. However, messages indicating a successful copy appear on both
system sides.

From the Database Control Branch: Disk Menu
(Route: 0, 10, 2, 0)
, press

to
copy one database file to the other.
The system prompts for the selection of the method used to identify files to be
copied, by database file number (
0
or
1
) or by file name, with:

highly recommended and is the only method discussed here.
