Hi there -
I am running Tur64 Unix V4.0F on an Alpha DS10 with a DAT TLZ10 tape
drive on it.
I have been appending my daily dumps onto a single tape, but reached
the end of tape much sooner than expected. I believe that I must
have the tape size or density computed wrong. (the description for
the dump command is pretty cryptic in the DLZ10 manual.)
Anyway I am using a 24GB DDS-3 tape. For the density, I am using 61000.
i calculated the tape size to be 229758 (or 3 * 153172 - as described
in the manual).
so my dump commands look something like
dump 1udsf 61000 229758 /dev/nrmt0h /dev/$fsys
and for some other calculations (determining the % of tape used up) i
figured the tape size to be (24G) = 25200000000
are my numbers all wrong?
thanks for your help
daniel
