Hello Gerard , Please find below a dmesg from a very bad tar
attempt to the tape drive mentioned . Also I tried the 8500
everything else same except used 8500 instead . IE:
Vendor: EXABYTE Model: EXB-850085QANXRC Rev: 06X0
Type: Sequential-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Command used :
tar --same-owner -cpf /dev/st0 /etc/passwd /[0-9A-Za-oq-z]*
a few minutes after the 'command processing resumed'
the timeouts resumed & didn't stop , truth be told couldn't
be stopped with out 'reset switch' . :-{
Tia, JimL
