Hi Managers!

Thanx to Joerg and Bennet for their answers. Non of really did it for me,
but maybe for someone else it will work:

My original question:

> 1. A problem with tar...On a DS20 (4.0f) with a TLZ-drive I cant read a
> tar-tape, even though I can read the same tape on a AS1000 (4.0b) with the
> same kind of TLZ-device. The drive on DS20 works fine if I use
> vdump/vrestore and stuff like that. The errormsg. I get looks like this:
>
> blocksize = 20
> tar: /dev/nrmt0h : This doesn't look like a tar archive
> tar: /dev/nrmt0h : Skipping to next file...
> tar: Memory allocation failed for extended data while reading : Not enough
> space

The summary of ansers to the first question:

Run a cleaning-tape
Try variants of density and compression
Install systemexerciser-subset, and run tapex, try it one time with the -m
and -w options.
If everything fails, read it from a remote network:
rsh "remote host" dd if="tape" bs=10k" | tar tvf -


Summary of answer to the second cuestion:
Enable quota, set this line en the configuration-file /sys/conf/HOSTNAME

options QUOTA

Then rebuild/copy new kernel.

then run

/usr/sbin/rcmgr set QUOTA_CONFIG yes

And quotas to the filesystems in /etc/fstab. It should look something like
this:

root_domain#root / advfs rw,userquota,groupquota 0 0

Then unmount and remount filesystems.

And, at last, run

quotacheck -v mountpoint
