775.0. "OSMS for UNIX to read FILES-11 format" by TROOA::JADAMS () Thu Feb 06 1997 19:39

    Can OSMS for UNIX read OpenVMS FILES-11 formatted optical disks that
    were not created with OSMS for OpenVMS?  
    
    Thanks,

    How were they created?  The reason I ask is some competing optical
    products say they create Files-11 optical disks but they are really
    only 99% Files-11.  If another product does what the OSxS OVMS product
    does, which is pass through I/O to the F11BXQP with no changes or
    addotions, then the Digital UNIX OSMS product should be able to read
    that disk.
    
    Depending on the business potential, maybe you could make arrangements
    to send a disk to our group to evaluate?
