Hi All,
I am having some issues writing a flash archive to tape :
Tape is:
#mt status
Vendor 'COMPAQ ' Product 'DLT8000 ' tape drive:
sense key(0x0)= No Additional Sense residual= 0 retries= 0
file no= 0 block no= 0

Flar command is:
#flarcreate -n <system> -t /dev/rmt/0
WARNING: hash generation disabled when using tape (-t)
Full Flash
Checking integrity...

ERROR: Unable to write archive.
/var/adm/messages says:

I probably need to use the position -p and blocksize options -b
Anyone seen this before.
Kind Regards,
Rob
