Mount Status

Mounting causes a drive to come on-line as a NetWare storage device. Dismounted drives are inactive and cannot be accessed.

Before you eject your current media, you should first Dismount it (menu choice 5). When the media status is Dismounted, you can eject the media. However, NetWare does not allow you to dismount it if the media is locked.

To insert your new media, wait for the drive to spin-up, and then select the Drive Mount option.

Lock Status

If your removable-media device supports the Lock/Unlock feature, you can lock the media (menu choice 6). The media must be in the Not Locked state before you can eject it. If the media is Locked, it cannot be ejected when you press the Eject button.
