rsync

Could rsync copy files to tape? How?

Thank you.

Re: rsync

RSync is not designed to write to a tape, no.

To do that, you need to use something like 'tar' or 'cpio', or another 'backup' product.

You could raw-dump data to a tape using 'dd', but I wouldn't advise it (as getting it back off again could be quite disgusting).
