The only media that works in the optical drives of the HMC for writing
is
DVD-RAM.

I've had the best luck calling and ordering them from office supply
stores -
most don't list them on their websites or stock them due to the lack of
demand, I'd imagine. They're pretty specialized media.

RE: HMC Upgrade






Thanks Justin this helped a lot. Unfortunately, I don't seem to have
the
proper DVD*R and can't get the drive to format any of them. So, I'm
FTPing the back up.
What exact DVD*R do I need?

"Format

I'm attempting to upgrade our HMC from V5.2 to V6.0 and I'm stuck on
the
install instructions where you either back up to DVD RAM or USB
flash
drive.
I'm using info center instructions titled "Upgrading the machine
code
on an
HMC" and I'm on step 4, "Back up critical console information or
HMC
Data".

This says to Select "Format Removable Media" after inserting the
media
in
the drive. From where am I supposed to select it? There's nothing
popping
up and it's not a menu option on the HMC.

Now if I chose to forget DVD-R and backup to a USB drive, the
instructions
say to select Service Management in the Navigation Pane and then
choose
Format... Well, my HMC has no Service Management option. It does
have
a
Server Management option, but there are no Format options within it.

What am I missing here?
