Using Your CD-ROM Drive
Operating the CD-ROM Drive
If ioscan does not see your CD-ROM drive it returns the following message:
ioscan: No hardware found
If you receive this message, go to Chapter 6, “Solving Problems.”
Using Device Files
Device files are special files that tell your system which pathway to use
through the system hardware when communicating with a specific device,
and tell what kind of device it is.
The examples in this section assume that the SCSI ID of your CD-ROM
drive is set to the factory default of SCSI ID 2, using the device file
/dev/dsk/c201d2s0. (The underlined 2 indicates the SCSI ID number.)
NOTICE: The device file name used in these examples is appropriate only for
systems running HP-UX 9.05. If you are using HP-UX 10.0, the device file
names will depend on the naming conventions of your particular system.
See “SCSI ID and Device File Information for HP-UX 10.0” in Chapter 1
of this book.
If you set the SCSI address of your CD-ROM drive to a value other than 2,
you must create a device file for it, then substitute the pathname of your
device file in the examples that follow. Refer to the System Administration
Tasks manual for information on how to create a device file.
