Not directly. The Device API supports appending to tape, but we haven't put together the configuration and mechanics to utilize that. What most folks do is collect dumps on holding disk until they have a tape's worth. The parameters taperflush, flush_threshold_dumped, and flush_threshold_scheduled are relevant. Could someone who's using this technique add a How-To to the wiki? Dustin -- Storage Software Engineer http://www.zmanda.com
