Copy Production to Trial

This utility creates an exact copy of the contents of the System into the Trial (Merge)
directory. The Trial (Merge) directory is created the first time that this utility is run or
when the directory is accessed with FTP. Since the LINCS operating system and
configuration files are contained in the System directory, copying the contents to the
Trial (Merge) directory will duplicate the LINCS operating system and configuration.
When invoking this utility the following panel will appear:

You may boot on the contents of the Trial directory by selecting ‘Trial’ as the Data
Object State in IML utility 2/2 or by performing an IML from the front panel, and
pressing the <1> key at IML State 500.
