I am currently cloning some old super dlt tapes to our new LTO tapes. I 
have completed 12 of 22 tape but i am now getting an error on the rest of 
the tapes saying "Cannot Decode block". Apparently this is something to do 
with the data on the tape being written in a block size of 128K and windows 
only being able to handle 64K max.

Our support people are telling us they need to change a registry setting on 
our backup server, i think it is to do with a HBA setting.

I am bit nervous about changing a registry setting to fix this issue, could 
anyone else give me some ideas on what to try before i make this change.

Someone outthere must have had this problem with tapes/Legato and Windows 
before!

Any help would be much appreciated.
