- I am trying to use a DAT drive that came with our HP 730. I installed the
- the DATIO software and it appears to be working.
- When I type '/usr/bin/datinfo /dev/rmt/0mn' I get:
-
- Maximum capacity = 1986 MB, Remaining Capacity =1973
- etc., etc.
-
- But 'tar cvf /dev/rmt/0mn /etc/hosts' gets:
- a etc/hosts 2 blocks
-
- tar: end of tape
-
- tar: To continue, enter device name when ready or null string to quit
-
- What is the correct format of the command ?
-
- Thanks.
