Message(s) or
Behavior
Couldn't mount
cdrom device at:
device_file
ERROR: Failed to
register the
cdrom depot at:
tmp_dir_name
Remove command
failed:
remove_command_ex
ecuted
Possible Cause
This error could occur
if:
• the user entered
the wrong device
file
• the cdrom is not
loaded and ready
• the device file is
not correct for the
cdrom
This error could occur
if: the CD-ROM
media in the
CD-ROM drive is not
a depot CD-ROM.
This error occurs
when you have
specified removal of
an obsolete release
and the command to
do the removal failed.
Fix
Try to mount the
cdrom manually by
executing the
following:
mount -Fcdfs -oro \
cdrom_block_device_file
\
mount_point_dir
Verify that the device
file is correct by
running sam.
Verify that the
CD-ROM is a valid
SD depot by
executing the
following:
swreg -l depot \
cdrom_mount_block_de
vice_file
swlist -s \
cdrom_mount_point_dir
Refer to the log file
for the command
used to remove the
release. Typically the
remove_release
command is used. Its
messages are written
to stderr.
