Hello All,
I have a 4mm DAT tape drive in a AXP 150. (now that you've stopped laughing)
It's running DU 4.0b and can access the tape device using mt. I already
did MAKEDEV and have the correct tape devices (rmt0h, etc.).
I tried /usr/field/tapex -r and got this:
Testing tape device /dev/rmt0h (interface SCSI, controller #0, TLZ07)

The record increment value is 512 bytes.
A total of 47616000 bytes will be written and verified
MTIOCTOP failed, op = 0, count = 2
Failed MTIOCTOP command is MTWEOF

Any attempt to write to or read from a tape also fails.
Any suggestions?
