Who ( in the familly of admins ) could work with 4.5Go Media (even with 20Go
blue-Ray )
We normally work with very big volumes, some hundred Go to thousand To.
Yes it's a bit more enterprise level, than dvd.
But the official solution : make volumes size to 4.5Go, have them inside a pool
(and some directory 10 dvd would cost 45Go of
hdd which is easy to find )
do the copy/moving job with dvd records tools, and adjust with update the
status of the media like status archive ...
