Access Points
The AXIS StorPoint CD is integrated into your network operating
system just like any other file server and you use the same commands
to access it. To be able to access CD-ROMs from your applications,
you need to make them available to your system, that is to ‘mount’ the
server on UNIX systems or ‘map’ the server to a drive letter on PC
systems.
You can specify several different mounting or mapping access points:
•
root level access
: The top level of the StorPoint CD directory
structure is used as the access point. The user of the StorPoint CD
can access all files on the server including the config and volumes
folders. This is useful for Network Administrators, who must be
able to configure and monitor the StorPoint CD.
•
cd folder access
: The cd folder is used as the access point. The
user can access all CD-ROMs inserted into the drives connected
to the StorPoint CD. On PC systems, this makes it possible to use
only one drive letter to access all connected drives. This is the
recommended access for normal users.
•
CD-ROM access
: A folder for an inserted CD-ROM, or a
connected CD-ROM drive if the SCSI Id has been given a SCSI
alias name, can be used as the access point. Only the files on that
CD-ROM can be accessed. On PC systems, this makes it possible
to map a drive letter to a single CD-ROM. This is useful or even
necessary with CD-ROM software that expects to find its data at
root level.
