3.6.2 Drive letter and label

Under NT a view can appear as a drive letter. A view can also be given a label which appears as a property of the drive.
Since a view can contain subviews, iXOS-JUKEMAN enables you to present any number of views as subdirectories of a single drive letter. The directories can then be shared individually with different permissions. This is extremely useful if different groups want to see different disk selections, but only one more drive letter is available on the server.
NFS clients do not use drive letters or labels. They use the mount command to access a view through a path in the volume tree.
