It should produce > a message like this. Well maybe somone out there can help me solve this tape problem. At this point I don't know if all the dumps I have made are fine like Amanda reported. Also I did recover some files last time testing the backups, why is not working now? The point is I'm using an HP Colorado T4000s tape drive, and each time I try to use it, for rewinding or whatever it prints on the screen this messages: Jan 20 08:09:27 mail /kernel: st0(ahc0:1:0): ILLEGAL REQUEST asc:20,0 Invalid command operation code I need to translate that message to human understandable language. Can someone point me to a place where I can find answers on this problem or should I replace the tape drive, drivers, tapes, etc.? > Alexandre Oliva http://www.dcc.unicamp.br/~oliva aoliva@{acm.org} > oliva@{dcc.unicamp.br,gnu.org,egcs.cygnus.com,samba.org} Universidade Estadual > de Campinas, SP, Brasil Pablo Quintana To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
