stape
-a
AT&T-style rewind/close.
-b bpi Bits per inch or tape density. The recognized values for bpi are:
BEST, D1600, D3480, D3480C,
D3590, D3590C, D6250, D6250C, D800,
D8MM_8200, D8MM_8200C, D8MM_8500 , D8MM_8500C ,
DDS1, DDS1C, DDS2,
DDS2C, NOMOD, QIC_1000, QIC_11,
QIC_120, QIC_1350, QIC_150,

DLT_42500_56 , DLT_62500_64 , DLT_81633_64 , DLT_62500_64C
,
DLT_81633_64C , or a decimal number density code.
-c [code] Compression with optional compression code. The optional decimal code is used to
select a particular compression algorithm on drives that support more than one
compression algorithm. This option must be specified at the end of an option string.
See mt(7) for more details.
-e Exhaustive mode. This option allows the driver to experiment with multiple
configuration values in an attempt to access the media. The default behavior is to use
only the configuration specified.
-n No rewind on close.
-p Partition one.
-s [block-size] Fixed block size mode. If a numeric block-size is given, it is used for a fixed block size.
If the
-s option is used alone, a device-specific default fixed block size is used. This
option must be specified at the end of an option string.
-u UC Berkeley-style rewind/close.
-w Wait (disable immediate reporting).
-x index Use the index value to access the tape device driver property table entry. Recognized
values for index are decimal values in the range 0 to 30.
special-file Put all tape special files in the /dev/rmt directory. This is required for proper
maintenance of the Tape Property Table (see mt(7)). Device files located outside the
/dev/rmt directory may not provide consistent behavior across system reboots. The
default special file names are dependent on the tape drive being accessed and the
options specified. All default special files begin with rmt/ccardttargetd
device. See
mt(7) for a complete description of the default special file naming scheme for tapes.
tape2
-a
AT&T-style rewind/close.
-b bpi Bits per inch or tape density. The recognized values for bpi are:

DLT_62500_64 , DLT_81633_64 , DLT_62500_64C, DLT_81633_64C,ora
decimal number density code between the range of 0 to 255.
-c [code] Compression with optional compression code. The optional decimal code is used to
select a particular compression algorithm on drives that support more than one
compression algorithm. This option must be specified at the end of an option string.
See mt(7) for more details.
-n No rewind on close.
-o Console messages disabled.
