I read the question as 'doas anyone still use blocked tape devices?" to which I answered yes, as I have an LTO tape library I use. But ... 1) I don't currently use it with amanda, and 2) I don't run Linux anywhere. Right now I back up using shell scritps to dump to gzipped files, then manually copy the files to tape, using tar. I am planning to resurrect amanda everywhere, including the tape library, but that won't happen until late spring. And even then, the library will be attached to a host running one of FreeBSD or OpenSolaris, so not much help either way. Sorry for the confusion :-( --lyndon
