Hello - I have a Quantum DLT7000 drive, and I'm wondering how I go about disabling hardware compression on it. I did some searching, and it seems that I should be able to issue this command:
lpdlnx00 LPD # mt -f /dev/nst0 compression 0 /dev/nst0: Input/output error I am certain that /dev/nst0 is the correct device node for the drive: lpdlnx00 LPD # mt -f /dev/nst0 status SCSI 2 tape drive: File number=-1, block number=-1, partition=0. Tape block size 0 bytes. Density code 0x0 (default). Soft error count since last status=0 General status bits on (50000): DR_OPEN IM_REP_EN I'm trying to get this disabled so I can get an accurate reading from amtapetype. Thanks! -Erik Anderson
