Hello all, I wanna take backup on 2 large IRIX hosts, using "tar" and "rmt" across the network, using a tapestreamer on a FreeBSD "backup host".. I was thinking, is there any problems in doing backups on IRIX using a streamer on a FreeBSD machine? As far as I know, the "rmt", "tar" and "rsh" are the same protocols / programs, regardless of hardware platform, or even unix variant.. But I am not 100 % sure of this .. anyway, my streamer is a HP SureStore 6000, I was a little confused by the hardware FAQ, it reads .. : .. "Hewlett-Packard HP C1533A, .. This drive is used in Hewlett-Packard's SureStore 6000eU and 6000i tape drives and C1533A DDS-2DAT drive." Does this mean that my drive ( SureStore 6000 ) is supported? I hope someone can give me some good advice. Christoffer Walther UNIX Admin & Hostmaster PROVENTUM
