ZOMBIEDRV
Purpose: Allows bufferization for file deletion on the specified disks.
Syntax: ZOMBIEDRV = drv[:][,drv[:][, ...]]
Note:
The main purpose of this command is to create a queue of files to be
deleted. Due to this queue, it is now possible to restore recently deleted
files with no data loss. The procedure is the following: when a file is
deleted, the system moves it to the \ZOMBIE directory, created before-hand
by the MKZOMBIE external DOS command. Directory size is specified on its
creating and it defines the queue size. When the directory is full, the
system will delete an old file and will write a new one in its place. Files
from this directory are also deleted when there is no more space on a disk
for new files. As the path is not saved when moving a file, the filenames
may be recurring, as could be seen with DIR command. Only the first file is
processed. Error messages may occur when running disk data check-up
utilities because of some files with the same names.
