 |
Displays FDRERASE/OPEN log files, which contain details of
FDRERASE/OPEN operations against a given disk. A list of available log
files is displayed, sorted by device name.
|
 |
Displays the FDRERASE/OPEN history data, which contains one summary
line for every FDRERASE/OPEN operation which has been performed.
|
 |
Invokes the ERASE function on the checked disk(s). ERASE overwrites
each sector on the disk up to 8 times with a data pattern specified
by the user. By default, it overwrites 1 time with binary zeros.
ERASE is compliant with data erasure requirements that specify that the
data be “erased” or “cleared”.
|
 |
Invokes the SECUREERASE function on the checked disk(s).
SECUREERASE overwrites each sector of the disk up to 8 times with
a random data pattern involving complements. In other words, the
first pattern is random, the second pattern is the complement of
the first, the third is random, etc. By default, it does 3 passes.
SECUREERASE is compliant with the latest US DoD data erasure
requirements and other requirements which specify that the data
be “sanitized” or “purged”.
|
 |
Invokes the VERIFY function on the checked disk(s), used to
verify that a disk has been erased. It reads selected sectors from
the disk and verifies that they contain a pattern which could have
been written by FDRERASE/OPEN.
|
 |
Invokes a PRINT function on the checked disk(s),
which prints selected data in hex.
|
 |
DELETE TASK deletes requested erase, verify or print functions
which have not yet started.
Highlight the line for each task to be deleted, then click the
icon.
|
|
(Pause) and (Resume) are used to temporarily stop erase,
verify or print functions, and restart them.
|
 |
CANCEL is used to terminate active erase, verify or print
functions.
|
|
Are used to toggle the FDRERASE/OPEN display between a single
panel (as in the example above) and a double panel with the disk
subsystems on the left and individual disks on the right.
|
 |
Invokes the FDRERASE/OPEN options panel.
|
 |
Allows you to change the FDRERASE/OPEN terminal security
password, and the number of minutes of idle time before the keyboard
is “locked”.
|
 |
Invokes FDRERASE/OPEN terminal security and “locks” the keyboard,
immediately. The displays are still updated but no functions can
be initiated. The current password is required to re-enable new
functions. This can be used anytime you expect to be away from the
terminal.
|
 |
The (“power button”) exits from FDRERASE/OPEN, syncs all files
on the FDRERASE/OPEN memory stick, and terminates the operating system.
