Hi all
OK - I'm not having much luck with these tape backups - a 20Tb HDD is looking very favourable right now but I'll press on for the moment. Does anyone know why a (LTO4) drive would report a tape being full when "it isn't"? It wrote about 470Gb perfectly well on a completely blank tape then errored out with "No space left on device" on a brand new (in cellophane) blank tape. I know this thanks to du -h on the source data and then reading the recorded data back with dd which reports the file size for every file it reads back on the tape. Any ideas anyone? Cheers R
