[HPADM] NEW SUMMARY: fbackup(3056) tape blocks report

Hello All:

I am getting emails from several observers that have completed testing
that shows FBACKUP is lying in respect to its 3056 blocks report output.

It is now apparent that the reported 3056 info is not correct
and is not 1024 byte blocks but is actually 512 byte blocks.

In order to get the true value of the output from the 3056 reported
blocks
it would have to be basically cut in half to show the true block value.

In this example output:
fbackup(3056): total blocks written to output file /dev/rmt/1m: 27074484

this would actually be approx. 13.86 gig actually written to the tape.

If anyone has any additional info on this issue, it would be much
appreciated.
