<div><p>All iSeries™ servers
include a rack-mounted CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive that is ideal for program and
data distribution. </p>
<p>The CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive is primarily intended as a program and data
delivery device and, even though many users can potentially access it simultaneously,
it can access only one media at a time. </p>
<p>A DVD-RAM drive is available to replace the existing read-only drive or
to be added as another internal drive. This drive can read CD-ROM or DVD-ROM
media, and can read or write DVD-RAM media. The CD and DVD drives supported
on iSeries cannot
be used to write to CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, DVD-RW, or DVD+RW media. </p>
<p>An optical media library is a device that contains at least one optical
disk drive and may contain many optical cartridges. Optical media libraries
can manage large numbers of optical cartridges and users.</p>
<p>Optical media libraries connect directly to your iSeries server. A multi-wire cable connects
the library to an I/O processor or I/O adaptor card. Optical media libraries
support all of the following functions: </p>
<ul><li>Hierarchical File System (HFS) application programming interfaces (APIs).</li>
<li>Most integrated file system commands.</li>
<li>Many i5/OS™ save
and restore commands.</li>
<li>Accessible by other LAN-connected iSeries servers by using the integrated
file system. </li>
</ul>
