Received this error message before and it has to do with an incorrect
block size used with the tar command, not with physical memory...

Subject: p650 tar command not enough memory
Hi All,
I have a 650 with 3 lpars, and am trying to extract a tar file from a
tape.
When I try to extract or even list the contents I get the following
error
message:
tar: 0511-193 An error occurred while reading from the media.
There is not enough memory available now.
This lpar has 2GB of Ram and 3GB of Paging space. When I tried it the
first time I had 1GB of Ram. So I moved a GB from an other lpar but
received the same message.
I did look through the archives but did not find anything.
Any help would be great.
Thanks in advance
John
