I'm trying to get a quick idea of how much data is being backed up to tape
before
the tape drive quits and asks for "reel#2". (Since it's on a cron job, it
quits).
We would prefer not to go to two drives at present, but that's not the
question.
What I did was awked out from the tar result file, all the "# Blocks"
reported
so I have a file of just #'s line after line.
ie'
1
5
0
12
(except it goes on for a couple thousand #'s)
Is there a command in T64 that will add up these #'s?
I realize these are rounded numbers, but it will let me know apx how much
the
drive is backup up on that tape.
Thanks
George
