<h1 class="topictitle1">Operational guidelines by optical device type</h1>
<div><p>This topic provides information on operational guidelines by device
type for optical library data servers and CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, and DVD-RAM standalone
optical drive devices.</p>
<p><strong>Optical library dataservers</strong></p>
<ul><li>You cannot use the default value, *MOUNTED, for the volume identifier.</li>
<li>Volumes that are provided in a volume list must all be in the same library
device.</li>
<li>A single save data file may span several volumes in a volume list.</li>
<li>For HPOFS formatted media, any volume used in a volume list becomes unusable
by any save or restore operation other than the operation originally processing
the volume list. <p>For example:</p>
<ul><li>Save command A writes save data fileA to volume volA.</li>
<li>Save command B writes save data fileB to volume list: volC, volB, volA.</li>
<li>Restore command A will not be able to restore from fileA on volume volA.</li>
<li>Restore command B will be able to restore from fileB on the volume list:
volC, volB, volA.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>CD-ROM and DVD-ROM standalone optical drive devices</strong></p>
<ul><li>CD-ROM and DVD-ROM are read-only devices. The system does not support
save commands for these devices.</li>
<li>Save files cannot span multiple CD-ROM or DVD-ROM media that contain ISO
9660 media format.</li>
<li>You can specify the default value, *MOUNTED, for the volume identifier.
It will process the optical volume currently in the specified stand-alone
device.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>DVD-RAM standalone optical drive devices</strong></p>
<ul><li>DVD-RAM devices are read and write devices. Save and restore commands
are supported for DVD-RAM devices.</li>
<li>You can specify the default value, *MOUNTED, for the volume identifier.
It will process the optical volume currently in the specified stand-alone
device.</li>
<li>Multiple save data files may span several volumes in a specified DVD_RAM
volume list.</li>
</ul>
<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> Software compression and decompression might increase
the save and restore times. It uses considerable processing resources which
may affect the overall system performance.</div>
