#1 added to directory on rmount DVD drive
Currently have an issue were we use a script to load a security .dat key. The script was failing to load stating "Unable to open directory". I ssh'd into the server and performed an ls -la on the /cdrom directory. I show the usual cdrom0 but the directory on the cd should be key but is showing key#1. I have put this same cd in other drives and the #1 doesn't show up.
I was able to work around this issue by performing a volmgt stop and start, after performing this, the /cdrom directory shows cdrom0, key and key#1. If I cd into key and ls I show key.dat file, and the key#1 directory is empty. I was able to delete the key#1 directory using rmdir and now my script will work to load the security dat key.
Now I have moved to the next disk in the line and the #1 issue has shown back up. I was able to perform the volmgt stop and start to work around again and have started checking each disk, and the issue shows up.
My question is, is this a cd formatting issue or is there something else at work here. This is on a 10 host system running nis+.

DCONF(1) User Commands DCONF(1)
NAME
dconf - Simple tool for manipulating a dconf database
SYNOPSIS
dconf read KEY
dconf list DIR
dconf write KEY VALUE
dconf reset [-f] PATH
dconf update
dconf watch PATH
dconf dump DIR
dconf load DIR
dconf help [COMMAND]
DESCRIPTION
The dconf program can perform various operations on a dconf database, such as reading or writing individual values or entire directories.
This tool operates directly on the dconf database and does not read gsettings schema information. Therefore, it cannot perform type and
consistency checks on values. The gsettings(1) utility is an alternative if such checks are needed.
The DIR arguments must be directory paths (starting and ending with '/'), the KEY arguments must be key paths (starting, but not ending
with '/') and the PATH arguments can be either directory or key paths.
VALUE arguments must be in GVariant format, so e.g. a string must include explicit quotes: "'foo'". This format is also used when printing
out values.
COMMANDS
read
Read the value of a key.
list
List the sub-keys and sub-directories of a directory.
write
Write a new value to a key.
reset
Reset a key or an entire directory. For directories, -f must be specified.
update
Update the system dconf databases.
watch
Watch a key or directory for changes.
dump
Dump an entire subpath to stdout. The output is in a keyfile-like format, with values in GVariant syntax.
load
Populate a subpath from stdin. The expected format is the same as produced by dump.
help
Display help and exit. If COMMAND is given, display help for this command.
