Hi all,

Sorry about posting the HW compression version first (especially to anyone who 
searches the archives). I read more on st.conf (yes it's running under Solaris 8) and 
played some with the various options. Here is what I got when I used the correct 
device:

$amtapetype -e 40g -f /dev/rmt/0ln -t HP-DLT1e
Estimated time to write 2 * 40960 Mbyte: 30720 sec = 8 h 32 min
wrote 1232058 32Kb blocks in 94 files in 13969 seconds (short write)
wrote 1238517 32Kb blocks in 189 files in 14193 seconds (short write)
define tapetype HP-DLT1e {
    comment "just produced by tapetype prog (hardware compression off)"
    length 38602 mbytes
    filemark 0 kbytes
    speed 2807 kps
}

Now to actually try a backup.
