Media interchange between LAN and directly attached libraries

Discover how High Performance Optical File System (HPOFS) optical media created in a LAN-attached optical library can be accessed.

HPOFS formatted optical media created in a directly attached optical library can be accessed in a LAN-attached optical library assuming that the media type is supported. Conversely, optical media created in a LAN-attached optical library can be accessed in a directly attached optical library if the media type is WORM or rewritable. Rewritable optical volumes initialized as rewritable media are not interchangeable between LAN and directly attached libraries. Universal Disk Format (UDF) media created in a directly attached optical library cannot be accessed in a LAN-attached optical library device.
