Once you have configured a magneto-optical disk, it can be used like any other disk. You will find its performance somewhat slower than a hard disk but faster than a floppy disk.

Consult the Optical Disk Library System Administrator's Guide that accompanied the hardware for procedures on the following:

  • initializing the disk surfaces.

  • creating file systems on the optical disk devices.

  • mounting the optical disk surfaces.

  • using the optical disk library as a boot or swap device.

  • using write-once disks.

  • removing the optical disk library.

Also, refer to the section, “After Configuring HP-UX for the Disk Device” for a list of potentially pertinent tasks.
