Hi,
I compiled the amanda-2.4.5p1 and when I try to run the command
"amtapetype" I'm get this error.
# amtapetype -o -f /dev/nrst10
Estimate phase 1...
Writing 4096 Mbyte compresseable data: 260 sec
Estimate phase 2...amtapetype: could not write any data in this pass:
short write
I have the same problem with a DDS3 tape drive (HP-C1537A), and it seems
that the drive / driver returns immediately after a rewind operation, but
a following write returns unsuccessfully if the rewind did not complete yet.
Is the shell command "mt -f ... rewind" returning immediatly too?
If yes, and you issue another command, does it give an error then?
Does the "mt -f ... status" giving an error, or does it indicate
that the rewind is still in progress?
