NetWorker can backup to a disk if you create a file and back up
to it as an optical device. However, a file acts as a device
instead of a tape volume, and you cannot switch from file to file
as you would switch from tape to tape.

It doesn't put a filesystem on those disks like one might expect from
using other HSM products.

| 438.3 | Optical Libraries may be an option | DECWET::RWALKER | Roger Walker - Media Changers | Tue Feb 25 1997 11:42 | 14 |
| If access speed is an issue the optical libraries provide
a way to compromise between space and cost. They are very
quick to change platers and to reach the data. They are only
so so on the actual data transfer.
Optical libraries do provide the normal automated media
management that NetWorker has with tapes including automatic
recycling of volumes with expired data.
Media pools can be defined to direct the use of devices if
optical and tape are both in use. I'm not sure how detailed
this control will be with the HSM module. Generally you
want your large and seldom access data on tape and your
smaller more frequently accessed data on optical.
