Gives guidelines for the control scenario of optical disk cartridges that conform to ISO/IEC 10090.

This Technical Report provides guidelines for the control scenario including formatting, defect management, the usage of Control Zone Data, etc. of drives which claim conformance to ISO/IEC10090, in order to achieve better usability of the 90mm optical disk cartridges conforming to ISO/IEC10090.
