Multiple dumps on an Exabyte tape unit are causing problems - or rather restore is. Skipping intervening dumps using mt -f /dev/nrrt0 fsf x works for small dump files, (I've tested it at 20-30M) but large dumps 75+M, fails giving the error: /dev/nrrt0 fsf x failed: I/O error Any help, pointers, etc would be appreciated.
