RE: Copy a Save Tape?

[Darrell A Martin <DMartin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, Rob:

Meaning, I take it, that it is not possible to set the block size at any 
of the following points:

        configuration of "from" tape device
        initialization of tape in "from" tape device
        copy of files to (what will be) "from" tape device

And, if you surprise me by saying that the device can be reconfigured, 
does that impact the readability of previously created backups?

Sounds like I'm in hot pursuit of a large undomesticated waterfowl. Thanks 
for trying.

Darrell
