+\fInumdisks\fR specifies the number of formatting processed,

+The maximum value for \fInumdisks\fR is 512. Default is 1.

+Using this option can decrease overall processing time when formatting

Specify the volume serial number or volume identifier to be written

is used. \fIvolser\fR is interpreted as ASCII string and is automatically
