Sure, a generic one: define tapetype YOUR_CHOICE_OF_NAME { comment "if you want any" length ### # native (not compressed) capacity minus # a couple percent for marketing hype # (units of mbyte or gbyte) filemark ### # zero to 0.05% of above number # it has relatively little effect # (units of kbyte or mbyte) } General question -- has anyone ever simply used the native capacity and a filemark of zero AND been bitten by amanda because of it? -- Jon H.
