check the cd rom connections then remove the cd and insert it once again then only do insf -e after that check ioscan -fnC disk

This will be the internal DVD drive of a rx3600 server - note: it's USB!

disk 7 0/0/2/1.0.16 UsbScsiAdaptor CLAIMED DEVICE USB SCSI Stack Adaptor
/dev/deviceFileSystem/Usb/MassStorage/dsk/disk@hp-1008+294=A60020000001
/dev/deviceFileSystem/Usb/MassStorage/rdsk/disk@hp-1008+294=A60020000001

# mount /dev/deviceFileSystem/Usb/MassStorage/dsk/disk@hp-1008+294=A60020000001 /mount_point

It will be easier to create a shortcut (link) like this:

# ln -s /dev/deviceFileSystem/Usb/MassStorage/dsk/disk@hp-1008+294=A60020000001 /dev/cdrom

and use

# mount /dev/cdrom /mountpoint

Note also:

it will look different if you are using the latest USB-00 driver software.

Hi guna,

I think first of all you have to update the USB driver to USB-2.0:

http://www.docs.hp.com/en/15637/UpdatetoUSBDriverSupportonHPUX11iv3.pdf

Currently

/dev/deviceFileSystem/Usb/MassStorage/dsk/disk@hp-1008+294=A60020000001

is not a normal device file to be used.
The update to USB-2.0 will provide classic style device files for your USB CDROM (something like /dev/dsk/c0t0d0), so you should then mount the CDROM as usual:

mount /dev/dsk/c0t0d0 /cdrom
(where c0t0d0 is just an example, you have to put what ioscan will show on USB device after the update)

HTH.

Best regards,
Fabio
