Hello,
I wanted to know for an AMANDA backup server running on Solaris which tape
device to use, currently I am using /dev/rmt/0bn but I saw some
documentation especially the RESTORING documentation which mentions using
/dev/rmt/0cn, so what would be the correct device to use ?
The same device should be used. I.e. if you backup to 0bn,
recover from 0bn. If you backup to 0cn, recover from 0cn.
See st(7) man page for a description of the letters.
In general, using the b versions (Berkeley style EOF) is
not recommended, but if something is working (and recovering),
don't change.
