Hi ,

I am backing up data unto an 8mm tape drive that can comfortably archive at least
2 GB of data. I have realised that when I try to backup files that are around 200 MB in size or more - "Tape write I/O errors" appears. This occurs when the "tar" command is used. These errors do no occur with smaller files. Also I am using a DU 3.2C Alpha system.

Has anyone experienced these problems or has solutions ?

Thanks

Susan
