Hello all,
I am trying to implement Amanda on an AIX box with 7337 tape unit. I haven't even
started the chg-scsi part yet.. which I think is going to be difficult. Right now I am
trying to get Amanda recognize my DLT tape size as 35GB instead of 14 GB? Here is my
configuration in amanda.conf
tapetype DLT7000-IV # what kind of tape it is (see tapetypes below)
<snip>
define tapetype DLT7000-IV {
comment "DLT7000 with DLTtape IV uncompressed"
length 35000 mbytes
filemark 8 kbytes
speed 5000 kbytes
and here is what I get from Amanda:
