All,

~          Anyone have any idea why we might be getting about 80 gb on our
AIT-4 tapes.   Consistently   80, 85, 87, etc.

~          On the thought it might be a particular scsi card and
driver, I replaced
our adaptec card with an LSI-logic one.   No difference.

~          Does anyone have any settings for stinit.def for AIT-4, or
do you use the same
as AIT-3?   Block sizes?

~          (By the way -- this is a storage node, we've run it both
with RH9 and Fedora Core
1 with no differences in behavior.).   To make matters stranger, we
were getting higher
density when we first got the drives this May.)

~          Kernel is 2.4.21.2199.5ntlsmp; 4 gb RAM; we're using a tape
blocksize of 192K
as we do with the AIT-3 drives.

~          By the way -- Networker 7.1.3.   Our machine and drives:
