First, thanks to all for your suggestions. I've gotten slighty farther with fixing
this problem with my AIT-2 Tape Drive. After a few changes, I am able to restore a
lot more files before amrestore crashes.
Here's what I did:
1) Power off tape changer & system
2) Change dip switches on the AIT-2 tape drive so that 7-off & 8-on.
This essentially turns off hardware commpression & turns on software
compression
3) reboot the system.
Before I try anymore tests, I'm going to re-run amtapetype again, and then run a few
backups withthe new config.
