Recover from EOD Crash:

login @ store make sure no one else is logged in, tell users to stay off until you are done, even if it
starts printing.
clear System Flags:
root - /usr/sbt - foxplus sysflag yes no yes 1st no to rest y to continue clearing
The following must be done at the store (logged in locally as regular user, not using remote connection
and not as root):{
POS --> Utility --> release eod logs --> yes(recovery) --> no(report) --> no(register file
analysis) --> e(eod)
}
login as root and clear system flags again
if you still can't open the register do this extra step
POS --> Utility --> release eod logs --> yes(recovery) --> enter --> no(report) -->
no(register file analysis) --> Q

Statements
End of Month statements cutoff is on the 25th so you can only prepare the statements after the 25th once
polling is completed.
Before beginning delete the old ppsinfo*.txt files from ar01-04 so as not to get them confused with
the new files.
1. Edit the sysdata files so they will be gathered correctly.
2

a) cd /usr/sbt foxplus set excl off use sysdata edit

b) for each LOC (1-4) {

screen down and look for SYSID ARLOC

?rlock() - removes the lock on the file before you can edit it

change STR7 to 15 on the 26th to do the report

change STR7 to 30 on the 11th for aging to work correctly}

c) for each LOC (1-4) {

cd /usr/sbt/data/arLOC set excl off use arsysdLOC edit ?rlock()

change STR7 to 15 on the 26th to do the report

change STR7 to 30 on the 11th for aging to work correctly}

b) age the accounts for locations 1-3 on the 26th just go into aging number 6, but on the 11th use
the password AGE then say Y to save the file.
d) for each LOC (1-3) {

open tireworks AR C M for selected locations say no to 89 and 99

S 1 change the date for beginning (PM - past month) to: PM/26/YY

change the date for cutoff (CM - current month) to: CM/25/YY

accept the defaults for all else

write down the totals given so you can add these to the text file and send to accounting}
e) the files from the reports will be saved to /usr/sbt/data/arLOC

rename /ar01 file: rename ppsinfo.txt ppsinfo.txt.az

rename /ar02 file: rename ppsinfo.txt ppsinfo.txt.panther

rename /ar03 file: rename ppsinfo.txt ppsinfo.txt.billings

f) on another computer get the new ppsinfo txt files and append billings to the end of az
g) update the statement count txt file
h) upload the az, panther, and statement count files to ftp site
2. Run the Equifax file and send it afterwards.

Orders Cycle Reports

1. rr Orders
2. run the reports for each RNAME(container, B/O Quick, Lost Sales){
1. for each LOC(atoz(blank), bil, pan){
1. if(RNAME == Lost Sales) change the start date to 90 days back.
2. run the report and append
2. }}
3. this will create the files contbo.txt, quickbo.txt, and lostsales.txt
4. import the files to a DBF
1. cd /usr/sbt/copy
2. foxplus
3. for each FILE(contbo, quickbo, lostsales){
1. use FILE index FILE
2. zap y
3. append from FILE.txt type delimited with ,
4. should see a message of records added.}
5. now run the report to make the files for the intranet side.
1. rr Orders
3

2. run Store Orders Header change the due date and run (bil, pan appended) change
1. makes header.txt
3. run Store Orders Line Items and run (bil, pan appended)
1. makes order.txt

Printers
Okidata Installation:
Installing Okidata Microline 420 Networked Printer
Use the OkiNet Utility for TCP/IP to get MAC address of the printer. Use that to set the ip address
using DHCP. Once you have that you can log into the printers web server.
Admin default login is user: admin password: OkiLAN
Change the password to: tires
Set up using the printer menu and the guide for settings.
Setup in Unix

Activate Printer:
scoadmin --> Hardware --> Parallel Port --> Add --> 1 --> accept the defaults
scoadmin --> Printers --> Printer Manager --> Printer --> Add Local
name=printer1

model=proprinter

dev=/lpd

Laser Network Printer Install:

scoadmin printer (to get to SCO Unix printer management)
printer add local
type in the PRINTERNAME
under model choose Net
4

under device choose /dev/null

choose ok
now select the printer you just added from the list
then go to Settings Advanced Banners
change the number of banner pages to 0
choose ok and you are done with that area.
edit the hosts file by adding the ip address and PRINTERNAME
vi /etc/hosts
add the new printer to the /etc/printers file underneath the others that have been added
vi /etc/printers
the format will be something like this
PRINTERNAME:PRINTERNAME(same as added to the hosts file since this is for the ip
address):9100:netcat:TireWorksLaser:DESCRIPTION
add it to TireWorks like normal

/****** OLD INSTRUCTIONS BUT KEEPING IF NEW WAY DOESN'T WORK WELL
************************************************************************************************\
base model for network laser is /usr/spool/lp/admins/lp/interfaces/hplasertest.orig
cd /usr/spool/lp/model
cp testlaser MYPRINTER
testlaser contains:
#/usr/spool/lp/model/MYPRINTER
/usr/spool/lp/admins/lp/interfaces/hplasertest.orig $@|netcat -h IPADDRESS -p 9100

#edit the model file you just created for the correct ip address.
5

vi MYPRINTER
#add the printer to unix
/usr/lib/lpadmin -p MYPRINTER -m MYPRINTER -v /dev/null
/usr/lib/accept MYPRINTER
enable MYPRINTER

Label Printer Install:

// echoinstructions | netcat -hPRINTERIP -p9100 (is a command to test print, with instructions being
printer specific instructions or command codes.
copy the file /usr/sbt/pLabel90 to the new printer name and modify it for the ip address.
Under TireWorks add the printer using this command cat | ./pLabel90 (with pLabel90 being the new
file you created and modified)
That's it, this printer won't be set up in lp and will only print directly to the port

Kill Print Jobs:

lpstat -o
cancel PRINTJOB#TOKILL (usually the first one)
or if a big list of print jobs to kill
lpstat -o PRINTERNAME | while read a b; do cancel $a; done
confirmed that this works for laser printers
or
scoadmin
follow the menu's to printer and terminate from there
lpstat -a lists the available printers
digione configuration
ncxa_config

Print to PostScript File:

In tireworks put under the device text2post>./fileName.ps
now you you will have a postscript file that can be grabbed and printed from a remote
computer.

Networking
Install Network Card:
display the list of devices in the pci slots
hw -r pci
install the card or use an onboard network device
install the drivers using custom
add the card and use settings found by the hw command to see what the Bus, Device, and Function
numbers are.
IP Address : 10.0.0.44
Net Mask: 255.255.255.0
Broadcast: 10.0.0.255
Domain: atoztire.com
Connections: 1024
Psuedo ttys: 64

Show Routes:
display the list of routes currently in the server
netstat -r

Route Add:
adds a route to the server where default is the
route add DESTINATION GATEWAY
ex. to add the default gateway do: route add default 10.0.0.1

Route Delete:
deletes a route from the server
route delete DESTINATION

Unlock Terminals:
ttyunlock ttyTERMINALNUMBER
for use if a terminal is locked which happens especially when a security test is ran.

Clear System Flags
