| After I have burned the volume, how can I verify that the volume can be read ? |
| If the volume is an A-Series
LIBRARY/MAINTENANCE CD volume, then it can be mounted on
the A-Series, and a COPY to NULL performed. With the COPY
to NULL, the MCP reads and verifies the checksum of every
record in every file, and then COPYWRITE discards the
data. The COPYWRITE on NT product provides a Verify Files feature, which reads and verifies the checksum of every record in every file. For the ISO9660 and JOLIET file systems, the only check that can be made is that the files can be read, since there is no checksum on these files. Verifying that the volume is readable is very important, since the CD recording process is not always error free. For example, the METALOGIC FamilyManager will not create backup references to files on a CD volume, until that volume has been mounted and verified.

| How can A-Series Extended Record Attributes be applied to a file ? |
| The A-Series Extended Record Attributes
are applied by the Intrinsic transforms with A-Series in
their name, such as ASERIESJOLIET. If these transforms are not suitable, then a user written transform can be created.
