I sent something about this last week but I guess it got lost with all the
stuff about meeting formats, ADSL, etc.
I have a Sony SDT-7000 tape drive to be used to back up a Linux server.
Everything was fine until I tried to back up a large amount of data on a
20gb drive. I have tried using both dump and tar and with each got a message
at the end of the first volume that it was time to change volumes. When I
did so, I got an I/O error message and had to abort the dump (or tar).
I suspect there may be something wrong with the driver. Formerly I used this
same drive on a SCO Unix box without a problem.
Thanks,
Dennis
