Using pfs_mount to Mount a DVD

You can use the pfs_mount (1M) command to mount a DVD on

any supported HP-UX system updating to HP-UX 11i v1. For HP-

UX 10.20, this is the only supported method for reading DVD

media with large volumes of data.

On HP-UX 11.0 and HP-UX 11i v1 systems, you can alternately

install patches to read DVD media correctly (see “Patching Your

System to Read DVD Media” on page 21). If you have already

installed the patches, you do not need to use the pfs_mount

command to mount the DVD media.
