P.S. I failed to take HW compression into account in the entries below. I have changed them as follows: define tapetype adr50 { comment OnStream Model: ADR50 Rev: 2.39 w/HW Compression length 42000 mbytes filemark 29 kbytes speed 547 kps } define tapetype vxa1 { comment

This would be a more accurate test: dump 0sf 1048576 - /dev/sda5 | (restore -tvf - ; cat /dev/null) Suprisingly that ran fine: Not terribly surprising, but it shows the dump - restore pipeline is not the problem. Now try this: /sbin/dump 0sf 1048576 - /dev/sda5 | /bin/gzip -dc | cat

It is my understanding that this drive was delivered with HW compression enabled. I have done nothing to disable it. After visiting their web site I see the problem... The tape is a V17. I did not recall, so I simply assumed that when you mentioned the V10, that it must have been the correct
