Hi, Jon,

The parameter blocksize goes into the tapetype-section in
amanda.conf.
"man amanda" says about that parameter:
blocksize "int"
Default: 32 kbytes. How much data will be written
in each tape record. The minimum blocksize value
is 32 KBytes. The maximum blocksize value is 32
KBytes. The maximum is set during configure with
--with-maxtapeblocksize.
Maybe this is just documented wrong, as the minimum is the same as the
maximum, except when you set another maximum with the
configure-option.
But as I see from the other thread, Brian is on another path right
now ... maybe he'll come back to blocksizes later.
