I ran amtapetype -e 8192 (which should have been half of this) -f /dev/nst0 -t SONY_SDT-7000
It took two days to run. Here are the results: define tapetype SONY_SDT-7000 { comment "hardware compression off" length 114668 mbytes filemark 910304 kbytes speed 24 kps } I'm using the ext3fs file system and have 120m DDS2 tapes. This can't be right. Any ideas? -Jeff Borders
