Hy,
has anyone experienced Sony DAT SDT-7000 on Alpha?
I installed one of this on an Alpha server 1000A running
DU 4.08. The installation was fine, the computer recognize the
DAT drive but I cannot read or write on the tapes.
The command mt works correctly, but when I try to read a tape
it get stack. When I try to write on it using e.g.
tar cv /dev/rmt0h <directory>
I get
tar: write : I/O error
tar: Tape write error
Similar answer if I use dump or cpio. Needless to say that I
checked that the tape is not write-protected.
Thanks for the help
Andrea
