I've got a DLT 7000 inside a tape library and I'm trying to figure out what's the right density code to set with mt to get the hardware compression turned on and thus be able to put something more than 35GB on a tape. With my old tape drive, outside a library, I could just put the tape in and use the selector on the front to pick the compression and format. Inside the library that doesn't work so good, so I'm assuming that mt setdensity <code> is the right answer. Does anyone know more about this? Thanks. ________________________________________________________________________ Jon Schewe | http://mtu.net/~jpschewe If you see a signature.asc file attached to the message this is my digital signature.
