Although I have only tried this command 1 time, I think you need to do that after using the drive for a while or filling a tape. Since there is no result.. > [root@superback ~]# mt -f /dev/nst0 compression 1 Was there any data on the tape when you executed this command. Remember you can not turn on compression if anything is written to the tape. You must erase it first. mt -f /dev/nst0 rewind mt -f /dev/nst0 weof John ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites. So do we.
