Hi all,
 
I have DDS2 tapes. I want to read these tapes by using dds3 tape driver. It
has data about sea. There is no any explanation about how I can extract. But
there are some notes on them. For example, box1.tar.gz. I understand from
this note, there is a file in tape which name is box1.tar.gz. and I tried to
extract this tape by using tar command:
tar xvf /dev/rmt/0n
but I get this message: 'tar: checksum error'
 
 
Is there any way to extract the files from tape? dd, tar or another command?
I need your advices
Thanks
