Hi,


I'm setting up amanda 3.3.4 with a Quantum Scalar i500 tape library.


Regrading compression options, I'll go with the recommendation in the 
documentation to let Amanda do the compression client-side.


How can I determine if hardware compression is enabled on my tape 
library? I can't find anything about it in the library. Is this option 
controlled by amanda or other mtx settings? Thanks.




Amanda do not set/unset hardware compression, it could be a feature to 
add to amanda.


The hardware compression is controlled by mt.
