Hi, I can store more files on tape with bsdtar than I'm able to read back. root@nudel dds2> tar -c -b 64 -v -f /dev/sa3 . [writes more files than the tape can handle - w/o an error!!] root@nudel dds2> tar -x -b 64 -v -f /dev/sa3 [...] x nudel/pics/selftreffen_2001.tar.bz2 x nudel/pics/selftreffen_2002.tar.bz2: (null) tar: (null) Exit 1 root@nudel dds2> It's not a tape error, it's reproduceable. With gtar i get an "tar, wrote only 0 bytes out of..." or sth. during the write to tape. <EXABYTE IBM-8505 807A> at scbus1 target 3 lun 0 (sa0,pass1) <ARCHIVE IBM4326NP/RP !D 5770> at scbus1 target 4 lun 0 (sa1,pass2) <HP C1533A A708> at scbus1 target 5 lun 0 (sa2,pass3) <HP C1537A L812> at scbus1 target 6 lun 0 (sa3,pass4) Greetings, Oliver -- Oliver Lehmann http://www.pofo.de/ http://wishlist.ans-netz.de/
