Integrated file system programming for IBM i

The integrated file system support provides a UNIX-type interface that you can use to maintain optical files and directories. LAN-attached optical devices do not support this interface.

The integrated file system support for optical support consists of UNIX-type APIs and generic commands.

Like all file systems, the optical file system has unique rules and restrictions for applications that access optical functions through the integrated file system. Several of the UNIX-type APIs and generic commands are not supported. Others are only partially supported, or restricted.
