Tape Question..

[axacheng <axanet@ms32.hinet.net>]

thanks for Lance .

i got solution about this question,my solve as following:

shell > tar -cjvfM /dev/st0  /backup_source

   <<  -M, --multi-volume
              create/list/extract multi-volume archive   >>

it will show a report when tape was full-up!!!!!  then it will note us to change other new tape !

then, we just put in the new tape into tape device! THAT'S ALL!   ;-)


=============================
Hello List :
