Hello all, I´m having some trouble with a Sony SDX-700V AIT-3 tape unit. I described some of the trouble in -hardware, but I guess most of them are -performance issues. I was going to x-post the message to this list, but before that I´ll rather ask if anyone is having any trouble with these units in 5.3-RELEASE. Also, does this version support AIT-3? I already searched the archives, but found nothing that could be of use (i´ll admit, maybe I missed something :P ). If there´s no know issues, then I´ll feel more prone to post that message in here, since it´s a bit long. But just to advance something: I´ve found that running "rsh [remote] tar -cvf - dir/ >/dev/sa0" is noticeably faster than "[remote]# tar -cvf mymachine:/dev/sa0 dir". Also, could there be anything wrong with "cat file.tar.gz >/dev/sa0"? These may seem dumb questions, but we used these flawlessly for some time with DDS-* tapes, but are not working with AIT... Ok, thanks in advance for any help. Cheers, Tulio
