Fro your tape devices, try this:
mt -f /dev/nstX setblk 0
mt -f /dev/nstX defblksize 0
Put it in your system (OS) startup scripts.

I successfully completed the migration from Solaris 8 to Linux platform but
same library and tapes.
But the tapes do not get recognised in the library even though they are in
the media database. I am able to label them only if I remove them from the
media database.
I also found an error message in the messages file as:
backup1 ntpd[1858]: time reset -0.507072 s
Feb 3 13:00:05 backup1 ntpd[1858]: kernel time discipline status change 41
Feb 3 13:00:05 backup1 ntpd[1858]: synchronisation lost
Feb 3 13:02:39 backup1 kernel: st1: Block limits 1 - 16777215 bytes.
Feb 3 13:02:49 backup1 kernel: st1: Incorrect block size.
Feb 3 13:03:12 backup1 last message repeated 2 times
Can any one help on this?
My stinit.def file looks like this:
# initial LTO Gen 1 entry for IBM , may need additional tweaks
#
manufacturer=IBM model = "ULTRIUM-TD1" {
can-bsr scsi2logical drive-buffering
timeout=800
long-timeout=14400
mode1 blocksize=0 density=0x00 # as close as possible to st.conf entry
Thanks in advance!
