Also is there a way to save these sizes into DP5.1 so I don't have to remember/type these formatting sizes each time?
Any 411 would be great. Thanks. :)
Solved! Go to Solution.

SolutionYes, it is possible. Edit the file /etc/opt/omni/options/global (Unix) or
Below is an example for DDS
MC_1=1 36 100 12000000 2
And for DLT
MC_10=1 36 250 36000000 2
The size is in kB you may need som trial before you get the result you want.

Re: DP5.1 and default tape sizes for DLT4 and DDS3
The value 2 (concurrency) in the DLT example should be 4 to get a default concurrency of 4.

Re: DP5.1 and default tape sizes for DLT4 and DDS3
Most important is that DP will always use a tape untill the end of tape is reached, independent of the size specified during the format.
So if you would use 1 MB or 1 TB for the DLT format, you still would get around 70 GB compressed data on it.
best regards,
Kurt

Re: DP5.1 and default tape sizes for DLT4 and DDS3
You don't have to worry of the tape format size b'coz even if you don't give size it will use the tape ( DAT or DLT ) upto its Maximum capacity on its own.
