RE: V5R1 CUME CD Images Problem

Jim,

I didn't know that there was a cleaning CD.

I just tried a music CD and ran WRKOPTVOL with defaults and WRKOPTVOL
DEV(OPT01) CSI(*NONE). Both returned the "Cannot find object to match
specified name" message. Like I told Charles, though, I used it just two
weeks ago to install OS features, but I guess, like cache batteries, it
could be up one minute and down the next.

I did run the Verify image option in ImnageBurn against the image created by
CDBurnerXP, and it checked out.

When someone that has the combination to the safe comes in, I'll pull one of
the OS CDs out and see if it comes up with anything for WRKOPTVOL.

Thanks.

The WRKOPTVOL should even be able to report the files on a music CD so
if it can't see the files, I suspect you have a bad burn or the device
is corrupted. Try a cleaning CD before you do too much else. Dust
builds up in the dang things and you can get really fun results if there
is dirt in there. You can use any product, but I have always been
successful with Active ISO Burner from LSoft Technologies.

Nope, when you burn an image to CD, you get the folder/file structure
contained in the image. The structure you gave of example is what I
would expect to see.

Unless you're not burning the CD's with the right settings, it sounds
like you might have a hardware issue with the CD drive on the IBM.

Can you read other disks?

Tried it and ImageBurn. Same result as outlined below. Maybe I'm
remembering wrong (I got so used to using image catalogues the last

few

years, and the little gray cells are coming through the scalp), but I
thought that in the past when I burned an image to a CD, such as
C4300510_1.iso that the result on the CD was the same (i.e.,
c434300510_1.iso) not some off the wall file/folder structure.

Am I just being hard to get along with?
