Operating Systems SCO Need advice: Copying large CSV report files off SCO system Post 302539315 by jgt on Saturday 16th of July 2011 01:41:22 PM

What kind of system has a SCSI diskette drive? A standard (34 pins) floppy drive is about 15 dollars.
I am not surprised that the floppy doesn't work, its usually the intake for the cooling fans.
In order to read the floppy diskettes on a DOS/Windows system, first format them using "dosformat /dev/rfd0135ds18" or "dosformat a:"
Zip the file.
Use "doscp file.zip a:" to copy the file to the diskette.
You could always use the "split" command to break up really large files into sections.
Are you creating DOS or UNIX csv files (crlf or lf line endings)? If you create UNIX files, you can copy them and then read them using notepad++ and save as DOS by changing Settings->Preferences

Should be initiated via It periodically checks the size of If the size exceeds blocks, 1000 by default, is invoked with argument switch. If the number of free disk blocks in the file system falls below 500, automatically turns off the collection of process accounting records via the argument to When at least this number of blocks is restored, the accounting will be activated again. This feature is sensitive to the frequency at which is executed, usually by Should be invoked by to perform the disk accounting functions. By default, it will do disk accounting on the special files in If the flag is used, it does a slower version of disk accounting by login directory. files specifies the one or more filesystem names where disk accounting is to be done. If files is used, disk accounting will be done on these filesystems only. If the flag is used, files should be mount points of mounted filesystem. If omitted, they should be the special file names of mountable filesystems. Invoked by to update which shows the last date on which each user logged in (see runacct(1M)). Should be invoked once each month or each accounting period. number indicates which month or period it is. If number is not given, it defaults to the current month (01 through 12). This default is useful if is to executed via on the first day of each month. creates summary files in and restarts summary files in Creates file with mode 664 and ensures that owner and group are It is called by various accounting shell procedures.

The report resides in where mmdd is the month and day of the report. The current daily accounting reports may be printed by typing prdaily. Previous days' accounting reports can be printed by using the mmdd option and specifying the exact report date desired. The flag prints a report of exceptional usage by login id for the specifed date. Previous daily reports are cleaned up and therefore inaccessible after each invocation of The flag prints a report of exceptional resource usage by command, and can be used on current day's accounting data only. Can be used to format and print any total accounting file. Should be invoked during a system shutdown to turn process accounting off and append a "reason" record to Should be called by system startup scripts to turn the accounting on whenever the system is brought up.
