Where:

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 rewind/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-2 Half-Height Tape Drive.
