A volume list is used on a save or restore request when multiple optical volumes are required for the operation, thus creating a volume set. All volumes in a volume set must have the same optical media format. Volume sets are not supported for CD media formatted with ISO 9660.</p> <p>You must initialize media of type permanent WORM and CCW WORM with the media format of HPOFS.</p> <p>You can initialize media of type rewritable with a media format of HPOFS or UDF. </p> <p>You must initialize the DVD type of media that is used by DVD-RAM standalone drive devices with a media format of UDF.</p> </div> <div> <div class="familylinks"> <div class="parentlink"><strong>Parent topic:</strong> <a href="rzam4optsavandrescncpts.htm" title="Optical devices support many of the most widely used i5/OS Save and Restore CL commands.">Optical save and restore concepts</a></div> </div> </div> <img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></body> </html>
