Hi John,

In Devices in Smit, the rmt came in "other scsi tape" and it's normal
because it isn't known from AIX. The blocksize came with 512, change
to 0 in order to enable the variable lenght block.
NOTE : if you don't use the drive on the AIX but only on ADSM, you can
delete the RMT of course !

In the Adsm Devices in SMIT, the mt came in "other scsi tape" and it's
normal because it isn't known from AIX. The blocksize in Adsm Devices
in SMIT will coming with a 1024 block valor default. Change to 0 in
order to enable the variable lenght block.

Chris.
