Hi,
I am trying to tar several directories to an LTO-3 tape using lin_tape,
IBMtapeutil and tar.
I open the tape device and then issue the tar commands.   When I check
the tape contents with  tar tvf, I only see the last directory.
I am not sure if I am not using the tar command correctly or if the tape
is rewinding after each tar command.

IBMtapeutil -f /dev/IBMtape0 rewind
tar cvf /dev/IBMtape0  /directory1
tar cvf /dev/IBMtape0  /directory2

tar tvf /dev/IBM/tape0  --- reports only on /directory2

Any suggestions, please?

Betsie
