Make a Hybrid (ISOL2+HFS+Joliet) Disk Image on SMB Volume Checkbox

Enabling this checkbox will create a ISOL2+HFS+Joliet disk image file in the specified location for each (virtual) archive disk created during the archive process in Digital Storage Manager. See “Make a Hybrid (ISOL2+HFS+Joliet) Disk Image on SMB Volume Path” below for more information.

This is the recommended option for most customers, as it reduces the likelihood of encountering errors due to file name incompatibilities and file size limitations when working between Mac OS X & Windows operating systems and between AFP & Windows shares.

Enabling this option will cause the following Media Options to be ignored:

Type of Image

Incrementally

PowerImage

JOLIET

HFS

APPLE

CD-ROM/XA

BOOT

BOOT

Warning: This option is not supported for users Archiving from the Digital Storage Manager desktop client for Windows. If using this option, ensure that all archive activities that use the Rimage helper are performed by users from the Digital Storage Manager desktop client for Mac OS X.

Make a Hybrid (ISOL2+HFS+Joliet) Disk Image on SMB Volume Path

The path to the SMB Volume hosted on a Mac OS X computer in which the Rimage Helper will create the Hybrid ISO file and from which the Rimage publishing solution will author the media.

ISO files will be automatically deleted from this location when the Rimage publishing solution finishes authoring the media.

Note: This volume must be shared as SMB, and it must be accessible by the Rimage Network Publisher and by any users who will be performing archive operations in Digital Storage Manager.

Type of Image

Selectable list for selecting the type of image file to create. Options include:

NOISO9660 - The ISO9660 file system will not be included in the disk image.

ISO9660L1_RELAX - Creates an image using the ISO 9660 file system with 8.3 file names. All file and directory restrictions are relaxed to the extent permitted by MS-DOS.

ISO9660L1_NORELAX - Creates an ISO 9660 image with strict adherence to the ISO 9660 file specification.

ISO9660L2_RELAX - Creates an ISO 9660 image but allows long file names and relaxes filename and directory depth restrictions to those permitted by MS-DOS.

ISO9660L2_NORELAX - Creates an ISO 9660 image with long file names but strictly enforces all filenames and directory restrictions.

UDF102 - Creates an image including the UDF Version 1.02 file system.

UDF150 - Creates an image including the UDF Version 1.5 file system.

UDF150UNICODE - Creates an image including the UDF Version 1.5 Unicode file system.

Note: Universal Disk Format (UDF) is an implementation of the ISO 13346 standard, which is itself an extension of the ISO 9660 standard. Originally UDF 1.02 was primarily used for Video DVDs. UDF 1.50 added support for rewritability on CD-R and CD-RW. Many older operating systems cannot read UDF formatted disks without special drivers.

Note: This option is ignored if the “Make a Hybrid (ISOL2+HFS+Joliet) Disk Image on SMB Volume Checkbox” option is enabled.

Incrementally

When enabled, the disk will be recorded incrementally with the prior disk session (if any). If not enabled, the disk image file will be recorded as an independent session, and files from previous sessions will not be available.

Note: This option is ignored if the “Make a Hybrid (ISOL2+HFS+Joliet) Disk Image on SMB Volume Checkbox” option is enabled.

PowerImage

When enabled, Rimage’s proprietary method for constructing disk images will be used. This can speed up the process of building images and can result in smaller image files.

Note: This option is ignored if the “Make a Hybrid (ISOL2+HFS+Joliet) Disk Image on SMB Volume Checkbox” option is enabled.

JOLIET

When enabled, the authored disk will include the Joliet extension to the ISO 9660 standard. This supports names stored in unicode.

Selecting this option will increase the amount of space on disk used for file system information and thereby decrease the amount of space available on disk for data.

Note: This option is ignored if the “Make a Hybrid (ISOL2+HFS+Joliet) Disk Image on SMB Volume Checkbox” option is enabled.

HFS

When enabled, the authored disk will include the Apple HFS file system.

Selecting this option will increase the amount of space on disk used for file system information and thereby decrease the amount of space available on disk for data.

Note: This option is ignored if the “Make a Hybrid (ISOL2+HFS+Joliet) Disk Image on SMB Volume Checkbox” option is enabled.

APPLE

When enabled, the authored disk will include the Apple extensions to the ISO 9660 standard.

Selecting this option will increase the amount of space on disk used for file system information and thereby decrease the amount of space available on disk for data.

Note: This option is ignored if the “Make a Hybrid (ISOL2+HFS+Joliet) Disk Image on SMB Volume Checkbox” option is enabled.

CD-ROM/XA

When enabled, the authored disk will be created according to the CD-ROM/XA rules.

Selecting this option will increase the amount of space on disk used for file system information and thereby decrease the amount of space available on disk for data.

Note: This option is ignored if the “Make a Hybrid (ISOL2+HFS+Joliet) Disk Image on SMB Volume Checkbox” option is enabled.

BOOT

When enabled, the authored disk will be created will be bootable. Creates a bootable disk.

Selecting this option will increase the amount of space on disk used for file system information and thereby decrease the amount of space available on disk for data.

Note: Currently, Rimage supports the creation of Windows and MS DOS bootable media. Consult your Rimage documentation for additional information.

Note: This option is ignored if the “Make a Hybrid (ISOL2+HFS+Joliet) Disk Image on SMB Volume Checkbox” option is enabled.

ROCK RIDGE

Extension to the ISO 9660 standard to allow for POSIX file system standards and UNIX specific file information.

Selecting this option will increase the amount of space on disk used for file system information and thereby decrease the amount of space available on disk for data.

Note: This option is ignored if the “Make a Hybrid (ISOL2+HFS+Joliet) Disk Image on SMB Volume Checkbox” option is enabled.

Label File Path

The label template file to be used for creating disk labels. The Rimage Archiving Helper comes with a standard label file (“meta_dsm_archive_lable.btw”). This file may be selected from the drop down list, or the path to an alternative label file may be typed in this field.

If an alternative label file is used, it will be uploaded to the database and, like the default label file, will be automatically copied to the Rimage Hotfolder along with Order and Merge files each time the Rimage Helper is used to archive files. Because this file is uploaded to the database, changes to the original file subsequent to it being uploaded to the database will not be reflected until the new version of the file is uploaded.

Rotation

The degrees that the disk should be rotated off the disk alignment mark prior to printing the label. Disk rotation requires that the Rimage unit has the Perfect Print option installed. Valid values for Rotation are 0.25 - 359.75 in .25 degree increments. If no Rotation value is entered, no rotation will be performed. If the Perfect Print option is not installed on the Rimage unit, then the Rotation value is ignored.

Label Fields

Label fields are used to define the information that will appear on the disk label. Any Digital Resource database field can be included here, provided that it exists in the database. The following Label Fields are available by default:

@ (volume_name)@ - Extracts the archive volume from the database for printing on the CD/DVD label.

@ (date)@ - Extracts the archive date from the database for printing on the CD/DVD label.

@ (media)@ - Includes the media type on the CD/DVD labels.

@ (imtype)@ - Includes the image type information on the CD/DVD labels.

@ (copies)@ - Includes the number of copies produced at time of archive on the CD/DVD label.

@ (fixate)@ - Includes the Fixation information on the CD/DVD label.

@ (source_path)@ - Includes location information of the files on the archive server on the CD/DVD label.

Custom label fields may be included provided that they correspond to existing Digital Resource database fields and follow the “@ (field_name)@” (including quotes) convention.

Note: You can create a custom Label Fields file and have the fields in the file automatically populate the Label Fields area by uploading the .RLT file to the Stored Scripts via the Stored Files Window (See “Adding, Deleting, and Exporting Scripts and Solutions” on page 644 for instructions). For this to work, the .RLT file must have the same name as the .BLT file and the Label Fields in the .RLT file must be written according to the following convention: “@@.........@@”, “@@.........@@”, “@@.........@@”, “@@.........@@”,

Available Fields

Replace the label fields currently used in the Label Fields field with the default Rimage Helper label fields. Default Label Fields include: See Label Fields above for the list of default label fields.
