Where:

x is the data under H/WPath from the ioscan.

y is the data under I from the ioscan.

z is the tape device identifier number.

You can execute an ls command for the /dev/rmt directory to choose an identifier number that has not already been used. You can also choose a unique device name such as cnb to more easily remember which device name will enable data compression during write. Refer to the man pages for mksf to review settings for rewind/no rewind, Berkeley mode, and AT&T mode.

After performing the insf and mksf commands, use the command ioscan –fn grep –C tape to check the installation. You should see output showing the hardware and device addressing and also the device name attached to the LTO-2 Half-Height Tape Drive.
