One option may be to add a "no-rewind" property to the tape device. I'm not sure how accurately varoius operating systems can determine the current file, though, so this might be a dangerous property. It's also currently very difficult to supply properties via amrestore, since it doesn't have a configuration file. Dustin -- Open Source Storage Engineer http://www.zmanda.com
