Also, the tape shows as mounted and write protected.

        *not registered in the NetWorker media data base

 

drive 1 (/dev/rmt/0cbn) slot  3: WED (mounted/write protected)  

drive 2 (/dev/rmt/1cbn) slot   :    

drive 3 (/dev/rmt/2cbn) slot   :    

drive 4 (/dev/rmt/3cbn) slot   :    

 

How can I change the blocksize for the device.

 

Thanks

All:

 

Here are the steps I was doing,

 

1. Label the tape,

 

2. Start the backup. 

 

3. The networker marks the tape as full with only 3M written.

 

 

 

Here is the log, and it is pointing to wrong block size.

It is complaining on the block size.  How do I fix this.

 

 

 

Thanks in advance,
