Re: Tapetype defintion for HP Ultrium 960

Sir,
A simple command, but you must ensure that your tape drive has native
compression turned off and you use a no-rewind device. If your tape
drive is say /dev/st0, then the command would be:
amtapetype -f /dev/nst0
The command itself can take up to 72 hours to complete, but the result
is specific to your system. Again, ensure hardware compression is turned
off.
Best Regards,

Hi All,
I would be grateful if anybody can forward me the
tapetype definition for an HP Ultrium 960 LTO3 tape
device (external). The SCSI controller used is an HP
374654-B21 - 64-bit Single Channel Wide Ultra320 SCSI
Controller. Basically, on what factors does the
tapetype deifintion depend? Else if I need to give the
amtapetype command is the command "amtapetype -t
/dev/nst0" sufficient? Or do I need to specify
additional arguments to the command? How much time
will this command take?
Apologies if this question is already answered.
Thanks in advance.
Yogesh
