Re: Trying to use dd to dump to tape drive 7980s in uncompressed format
I dont see any thing wrong with your command:
rmt/0m for reel tape drive would write at 1600 bpi where as 0h would be 6250, only I have never used your type of drive, woulndt it be a HP7980/XC ? This model has a special data compression capability, I would suggest that you find the manuals of your drive and see how to deacitvate the data compression facility, but as said befor I heard of this model fes years ago but never seen one...
Good luck
All the best
Victor

Re: Trying to use dd to dump to tape drive 7980s in uncompressed format
You can create a DDS1 device file which does not compress data when writin go tape by running:
mksf -C tape -b DDS1
You will then have extra tape device files that have the format:
/dev/rmt/c_t_d_DDS1.

Joseph.
