Hello,
I have been trying to mount a ISO 9660 drive image to the OpenVMS and copy the save set over to my OpenVMS drive. But I jsut cant get the drive to mount. I tried all sorts of stuff but I get problems because of the filles 11 system.
This did not work
$ MOUNT/MEDIA_FORMAT=CDROM/UNDEFINED_FAT=STREAM:2048 DUA0: FREEWARE
Why is it having a hard time with the 9660. I just want to copy this backup set to the OpenVMS dua0 disk and then fix it. After that I will do a restore to dua1:
Thanks |

Are you sure that the disk image is really an ISO-9660 drive image?
Are you sure that the image is not corrupt?
See: http://labs.hoffmanlabs.com/node/1613 for starters. |

Thanks for your answer
I do believe my iso images are a problem. I was able to mount the ISo image that is used to install OpenVMS. I was able to get a UCX package and install it in OpenVMS. I used dd command in creating the iso images. Someone mentioned that the other software applications can mess it up so I did the linux dd command.
Here is what i used:
dd if=vaxdisk1.dat of=vaxdisk1.iso bs=2k
does the bs value need to be 512 to match the cluster size of the ODS2 file format. Is that why I get a error when I try to mount the iso image inOpenVMS. It says not files 11 file system.
Thanks again.
