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 don't have experience with a DLT7000 drive, but I guess the kosher way to accomplish what you want is by modifying /etc/stinit.def maybe followed by a reload of the scsitape kernel module.
Search Google for:
squared kosher amanda compression
you may even hit the "lucky" button!
You'll be directed to this article, which contains some information: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=amanda-users&m=109595974821553&w=2

PS. I knew I once would direct people to this search!
