HELP SYSRESTORE Steven Hardy, March 1982 sysrestore(<file>) or sysrestore(<file>, <boolean>) This procedure restores the POP-11 system to the state which it was in at the time the <file> was created with *SYSSAVE or SYS_LOCK_SYSTEM. The standard files (such as *POPDEVIN, *POPDEVOUT and *POPDEVERR) are NOT restored nor are the values of the variables *POPARGLIST, *POPPID or *POPUSERNAME, all of which remain as they were prior to the call of SYSRESTORE. If <boolean> is set to FALSE, no mishap will occur if <file> does not exist. If it is set to TRUE, then no mishap will occur in this case or when <file> does not match the current value of POP_SYSTEM_VERSION (see REF *SYSTEM for further details). <file> may be a string or a word; in the latter case '.psv' is appended. See also HELP *SYSSAVE - on saving the state of the system in a file HELP *PARAMETERS - on running POP-11 with parameters REF *SYSTEM - for details of SYS_LOCK_SYSTEM --- C.all/help/sysrestore --- Copyright University of Sussex 1991.
