Ira,

The "mt" command, using the ntibm? and rtibm? device names.  Then you just
use tar, afio, cpio, whatever to write to the device name.

Subject: 3480/3490 tape access on linux 2.4 kernel


greetings all,

when i do a modprobe tape390 on the new version of SuSe i see it has tape
support and it even knows that there are two tape drives available in the
LPAR.  How do i get to access and use these drives?

TIA
