Oracle Tape Hardware (MOSC)

MOSC Banner

Receiving "End of medium on 'input'"

When using StorageTek SL24 Tape Autoloader we backup files using

cpio -ovC 32764 -H odc -O /dev/rmt/0cn < $backuplist

This works fine, but then when displaying the tape back

cpio -itvC 32764 -R root -I /dev/rmt/0cn

We receive

End of medium on "input".

Change to part 2 and press RETURN key. [q]

If you press ENTER you receive another message, where the "part #" increments, fore example:

Change to part 3 and press RETURN key. [q]

Change to part 4 and press RETURN key. [q]

...

Not sure why this has started happening.

Howdy, Stranger!
