Using the Optical Disk Interface › Overview › Requirements

Requirements

The system requirements for the CA View Optical Disk Interface are as follows:

• To use any of the optical disk interfaces you must have CA View r11 (or higher) and the CA View Expanded Retention Option (ERO).
• The Kodak Optistar Storage System page level driver requires the Data/Ware Multi-user Data Retrieval Subsystem (MDRS).
• The FileTek drivers require the FileTek callable interface (module LSMCALL).
• The OAM driver needs OAM to be is running with all CA View transactions occurring on the system that is running OAM. This involves the following:
  • The CA View archival started task must execute on the system with OAM if either the CA View backup cycle or optical migration subtask does the migration to OAM.
  • All online users selecting SYSOUT groups from secondary disk storage must be executing on the system with OAM.
  • Users on another system can load the SYSOUT group from secondary disk to the CA View database in order to access it. The SARBCH job used to load the SYSOUT group must run on the system with OAM.
  • All SARBCH jobs requesting SYSOUT groups from secondary disk storage must execute on the system with OAM.
