Hi all,

Is it possible to use a tape drive (/dev/ht0 in my case) as the destination
for mysql logging?  MySQL manual only mentions outputting to disk file.
Example:

% safe-mysqld --log-update= tar -czvf /dev/ht0/mysql-update.log

I've tried the above with the following error in the error log:

Could not use tar -czvf /dev/ht0/mysql-update.log for logging (error 2)

Any comments are appreciated.


Nick
