IBM Tape Diagnostic Tool | filemark is encountered before the number of specified records. If the count | parameter is not used, all records up to the next filemark on tape are read. | Parameters: | read -d Dest [-c Count] | Supported platforms: All | rewind | (Deprecated: -o rew) Rewind the tape. | Parameters: | None | Supported platforms: All | rtest | (Deprecated: -o rea) This subcommand performs a read test by reading a random | data pattern from the tape and verifying that it matches the written data. The rtest | subcommand can be used after the wtest subcommand to verify the data. An | optional block size, count, and repetition can be specified with the -b, -c, and -r | flags, respectively. If the block size is fixed, then the count specifies the number of | blocks to read on each repetition. If the block size is zero (variable), then the count | specifies the number of bytes to read on each repetition. The default is a block size | of 10240, a count of 20 blocks, and a repetition of 1. | Parameters: | read [-b Blocksize] [-c Count] [-r Repetition] | Supported platforms: All | rwtest | This subcommand performs a read and write test by writing a random data | pattern on the tape, reading it, and verifying that it matches the written data. An | optional block size, count, and repetition can be specified with the -b, -c, and -r | flags, respectively. If the block size is fixed, then the count specifies the number of | blocks to write on each repetition. If the block size is zero (variable), then the count | specifies the number of bytes to write on each repetition. The default is a block | size of 10240, a count of 20 blocks, and a repetition of 1. | Parameters: | rwtest [-b Blocksize] [-c Count] [-r Repetition] | Supported platforms: All | seod | (Deprecated: -o eod) Spaces to end of data on the tape. | Parameters: | None | Supported platforms: All Chapter 10.
