About PoINT for iXOS Jukeman


iXOS Jukeman was a simple archive device manager that presented a CD Jukebox or Optical Jukebox as a file system with sub-folders named after the physical Volume Label of each media surface. When compared to current Jukebox Management Software products, iXOS Jukeman was very limited in functionality, and offered no advanced features such as Volume Sets, media spanning, automated file migration, or automated media copy.

During its lifespan, iXOS Jukeman went through a number of acquisitions by other companies, including Smart Storage, OTG, EMC, and ultimately EMC, until it was finally discontinued several years ago. As with the discontinuation of ALL software products, no further product updates or technical support is available for iXOS Jukeman.

For those customers who used iXOS Jukeman to archive data to Magneto-Optical media, PoINT Jukebox Manager offers an optional File System Reader that will read Magneto-Optical platters that were written using the proprietary iXOS IFS/IXW file system.

By providing a true “plug-and-play” module that can read an iXOS IFS/IXW file system, customers can now use PoINT Jukebox Manager to read iXOS formatted Magneto-Optical platters, and eliminate the burden and costs of performing a migration to newer media types and file systems.
