The following is a detailed description of the commands:
cdadm writer action=format location=<dev>
Format the specified disk (not possible for CD-Rs, but for MOs, and PDs
as well as hard disk images). <dev> is in the format <device>,<slot>.
<device> is the name of the device description file and <slot> is the slot
number.
Example:
cdadm writer action=format location=mo_box.dev,10
cdadm writer [fsi=ifs] [buffer=<bufname>] action=init
location=<dev> vname=<name>
This will create an incremental file system on the specified disk. A CD-R
can be written with up to 99 tracks. There is not such limitation for PDs,
WOMRs, MOs and hard disk images. Please note that iXOS-JUKEMAN
does not compute if there is sufficient space for the final contents track to
finalize the disk. <dev> is in the format <device>,<slot>. <device> is the
name of the device description file and <slot> is the slot number.
The optional parameter fsi=ifs specifies the incremental file system
(ifs) as the the file system implementation to be used. This is also the
default setting if this parameter is not specified. Another file system im-
plementation is the WORM file system ixw (see “WORM file system” on
page 160).
It is possible to set up several independent buffers for the incremental file
system with iXOS-JUKEMAN 2.2 (see “IFS with several independent buff-
ers” on page 243). The parameter buffer=<bufname> must be specified
if you use this set-up where <bufname> must be one of the buffer names
defined in server.cfg. Each write access to the disk <name> will use
the buffer specified during initialization.
