Gene:
To me, the obvious cure would be to remove the partial file
Frank:
This seems dangerous to me.
It seems easier and safer to to just have amverify buffer the
error and if it is successful in reading the DLE from the next
tape don't output the error.
Gene:
Which makes perfect sense to me. And, it shouldn't take more than say
10-15 lines of code to do it.
I agree that this should be solved in amverify(run).
I really like the idea of limiting write-access to (v)tapes to amdump.
After the dumps have been done, successfully or hitting EOT, the rest
should be read-only and errors covered by the binaries accessing the
(v)tapes.
Following this principle seems to reduce risk to me.
