<strong>All</strong> <strong>approved</strong> <strong>UDF</strong> <strong>2.60</strong> <strong>DCNs</strong><br />

DCN-5101<br />

Document: OSTA Universal Disk Format<br />

Subject: Virtual, metadata and read-only partitions on one volume<br />

Date: September 15, 2003; Modified December 8, 2003 and June 8, 2004<br />

Description:<br />

Outcome of <strong>UDF</strong> Committee meeting September 15, 2003:<br />

The intent of <strong>UDF</strong> 2.50 was to exclude the combination of a virtual and a metadata<br />

partition. It is assumed that a virtual partition is on a write once partition only, but that is<br />

not really defined in the <strong>UDF</strong> spec, so an explicit exclusion is needed.<br />

Further “single partition” must be interpreted as “single Partition Descriptor”, because a<br />

volume with a Metadata Partition always has already 2 partition maps.<br />

Added on December 8, 2003 and June 8, 2004:<br />

A Metadata Partition must be used for the overwritable partition in the special case of an<br />

overwritable partition and a read-only partition on one volume.<br />

This DCN is meant for the next <strong>UDF</strong> revision after 2.50 and for the <strong>UDF</strong> 2.50 errata.<br />

Change:<br />

In the first paragraph of 2.2.10 replace:<br />

This partition map shall be recorded for volumes which contain a single partition having<br />

an access type of 1 (read only) or 4 (overwritable). It shall not be recorded in all other<br />

cases.<br />

by:<br />

A Metadata Partition Map shall be recorded for volumes that contain a single Partition<br />

Descriptor having an access type of 1 (read only) or 4 (overwritable) and do not have a<br />

Virtual Partition Map recorded in the LVD.<br />

For the special case of two non-overlapping Partitions on one volume, one with an access<br />

type of read-only and one with an access type overwritable, there shall be a Metadata<br />

Partition Map associated with the overwritable partition.<br />

A Metadata Partition Map shall not be recorded in all other cases.<br />
