Paul,

I don't think you will be able to read DLT tape media written to in 256k
block size on a SDLT tape device configured at 128k block size. I think you
would have to re-configure your SDLT tape device to be 256k block size.

Subject: [Networker] Having trouble reading DLT tape on SDLT220 drive


I'm trying to rebuild media and client indexes from 3 DLT tapes from my
previous backup silo

The SDLT tapes write at 128k block size
The DLT tapes wrote at 256k block size

The backup server is Windows 2000 running Networker 6.2

When I run scanner -m \\.\Tape0, I get a tape read errors after the
volume label is read, and I've got an empty volume listed in my volume
database

Any thoughts?

Paul C
