For optical disks, the files appear in the same order as in the Product Output menu.
Archive logs are maintained on disk as ASCII text files.
When a tape is mounted, IRIS checks to see if there is a corresponding tape log. If the tape is
a valid IRIS tape, the list is displayed.
In the case of optical disk, a new log is generated when a disk is mounted.
