Hi everyone,

I am configuring an HP JetStore 6000 C1533 DDS-2 tape drive.  I have 4 of
them in a SpectraLogic 10000 (BullFrog) tape library, with 60 slots.

I am running tapetype like this:

# ./tapetype -e 4g -f /dev/rmt/0bn -t "HP JetStore 6000 C1533"

It's been running for about 90 minutes and I'm estimating it's about 40% of
the way done.

My question:  Should I have used the compression device (/dev/rmt/0mbn or
/dev/rmt/0hbn) instead of the non-compression device?  I've noticed a few
posts that reference compression devices when running tapetype, but the docs
say to use the regular device.

Thanks for the help!

Damon
