- PCUNIX/MO is a file management software package for magneto-optic (MO) disk
- drives in SCO UNIX based environments. PCUNIX/MO interfaces with the Adaptec
- series of SCSI Host Adapters. It supports magneto-optic disk drives
- manufactured by Ricoh, Hewlett-Packard, and Sony Corp
-
- PCUNIX/MO employs a cpio style user interface. UNIX users will find it easy to
- understand and use. The basic driver supports UNIX system utilities cpio, dd,
- and tar. The driver may also be called by user programs. The driver has a raw
- I/O interface, which maps directory to the system calls of
- open/close/read/write/ioctl
-
- PCUNIX/MO creates a media-based directory. This means that files may be located
- directly without a serial scan of the entire volume. Each cartridge is
- self-contained and protects user data from loss due to UNIX system crashes.
- Volume labels are user definable. This allows for improved file management
-
- PCUNIX/MO captures files complete with stat structure information. This allows
- for complete file recovery in case the UNIX system crashes. PCUNIX/MO also
- enhances throughput by transferring data in large blocks
-
- PCUNIX/MO is the only UNIX application that efficiently handles write-protected
- and removable media.
