Hi Sun Managers,

I am remotely copying to a Tape drive using the following command:
tar cvfb -20 /logs/parse |rsh server dd of=/dev/rmt/0n obs=20

However, when I try to restore using the following command
rsh -n server dd if=/dev/rmt/0n bs=20b |tar xvBfb - 20 /logs/parse

0+52 records in
0+52 records out
tar: blocksize 2
if I use blocksize 2 it is giving error
tar:blocksize =0

What am I missing here ?

Thanks
