• x is the data under H/WPath from the ioscan.
•
y is the data under I from the ioscan.
•
z is the tape device identifier number.
You can execute an
ls command for the /dev/rmt directory to choose an
identifier number that has not already been used. You can also choose a
unique device name such as cnb to more easily remember which device
name will enable data compression during write. Refer to the man pages
for mksf to review settings for r
ewind/no rewind, Berkeley mode, and
AT&T mode.
After performing the
insf and mksf commands, use the command
ioscan
–fn | grep –C tape to check the installation. You should see
output showing the hardware and device addressing and also the device
name attached to the LTO-3 Tape Drive.
