/sbin/mksf –d stape –H x/x.x.x –I y –c 1
–n –u /dev/rmt/zcnb
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

mksf to review settings for rewind, no

Berkeley mode, and AT&T mode.
Note: You can execute an
ls command for the /dev/rmt directory

• A unique device name such as
cnb to more easily
remember which device name will enable data
