Thanks John, that looks right. The first tape finished after 4 hours, so that's pretty much theoretical maximum tape speed. At this rate I'll be done in 7 days (not as bad as I thought it could be). It'd be a little faster except I have to manually change the tapes - that is, manually using mtx. Is there any way for next time that I can get the tapes to change automatically? Thanks again everyone who's helped - fingers crossed that in 7 days it'll be a valid catalog. I'm getting a repeating "Could not find Job for SessId..." error, but I'm hoping it'll get resolved by the end of the tape or the next tape. -M ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
