Configuring the Archiving Device

The software initialization file (init.cfg) for your Effects or Editing 2008 application contains
examples of the use of the ClipMgtDevice Tape keywords. Use them to select a block size value
for your tape device, as well as to select a text label that identifies the device in the Archiving
module. Refer to the Configuration File Reference Guide for your operating system for additional
information.

You should also refer to the documentation from your archiving device vendor for guidelines
on the actual block size to use.
