The man utility looks up man pages on the system. Further Command Information For additional information on using tar and a complete list of the command arguments, refer to the tar man page by typing the following: man tar Enter You may also communicate with the tape drive with the cpio, ftio, mt, and fbackup commands. For more information on these commands, enter the following in a terminal window: man command Enter Media Interchangeability Restrictions If you interchange media between DDS-format tape drives, the following two restrictions apply to the media: • Data cassettes with compressed data can only be read by tape drives that have data compression capabilities, such as the tape drive (part number C1504-67201) found in Kit A2275A #AHS. • Full height (5 1/4-in) DDS-format tape drives (models HP 35470A and HP35480A) can get 1.3 GB and can read or write to 60-meter data cassettes only, if they are not using data compression. With data compression, these drives can get 2 GB and can read or write to 90-meter cassettes. Troubleshooting If you have trouble with any of these procedures for using your DDS tape drive, see Chapter 6 of this book, "Solving Problems." 4-17

Further Command Information
For additional information on using
tar
and a complete list of the
command arguments, refer to the
tar
man page by typing the follow-
ing:
man
tar
Enter
You may also communicate with the tape drive with the
cpio
,
ftio,
mt
,
and
fbackup
commands. For more information on these com-
mands, enter the following in a terminal window:
man
command
Enter
Media Interchangeability Restrictions
If you interchange media between DDS-format tape drives, the fol-
lowing two restrictions apply to the media:
Data cassettes with compressed data can only be read by tape
drives that have data compression capabilities, such as the tape
drive (part number C1504–67201) found in Kit A2275A #AHS.
Full height (5 1/4-in) DDS-format tape drives (models HP
35470A and HP35480A) can get 1.3 GB and can read or write
to 60-meter data cassettes only, if they are not using data com-
pression. With data compression, these drives can get 2 GB and
can read or write to 90-meter cassettes.
Troubleshooting
If you have trouble with any of these procedures for using your DDS
tape drive, see Chapter 6 of this book, “Solving Problems.”
The
man
utility looks up
man pages on the sys-
tem.
