Mounting and Dismounting a CD-ROM Disk 

Before you can access a CD-ROM disk, you must mount the disk as a known
volume.  When you are ready to remove the disk from the CD-ROM drive, you
have to dismount the CD-ROM drive first.


NOTE  If you dismount a CD-ROM disk while a user is accessing the drive,
      the client software displays the message "Not ready reading drive"
      on the PC. To continue, mount an ISO-9660 CD-ROM on the PC. The
      client software quits and returns the user to the root directory,
      where the user can restart the operation.


In the following examples, 4 is the LDEV number of the CD-ROM disk.
Replace 4 with the LDEV number of your disk.

To mount a CD-ROM disk, type:

     CDMGR>MOUNT 4 

To mount all CD-ROM disks, type:

     CDMGR>MOUNT ALL 

To dismount a CD-ROM disk, type:

     CDMGR>DISMOUNT 4 

To dismount all CD-ROM disks, type:

     CDMGR>DISMOUNT ALL
