Hi.

I am working on a project to duplicate several legacy tapes that were
written using a AIT-2 (SONY SDX-500C) tape drive to a different media
format.

I am getting "read errors" when attempting to perform the duplication on
almost ever backup image.

I have adjusted the st.conf (Solaris media server) file to the suggested
values, but it has not helped. The AIT-2 drives are running the 0200
firmware, so this shouldn't be a dip switch setting issue.

Does anyone know of a way to tell if the tapes may have been written in
"fixed-length blocks" instead of "variable-length blocks"???

Thanks!!!
