You don't mount the tape at all, but I think the newer versions of
Networker will unmount it for you.
You just run the command and it will read the tape and report any
error it can detect.
Be aware that this takes quite some time though.
And the data is NOT compared against the original data.
It is fine for physical errors and/or blocking problems and simpler
logical problems though.
But with uasm you can even verify a certain saveset :-)
Good luck
