We have two tape drives in our 270.  An internal QIC and an LTO loader (I
think it is a 3580/3581?).

We would like to do GO SAVE 21 to the LTP since we can do the whole system
to one tape.  Would it be possible to reload the system from such a backup,
or can it only be done from an internal drive?

How do you see/set this?

We do not have an immediate need, we are just wondering if we are wasting
our time even using the LTO for this.
