I'd like to use it with rbak/wbak. The system is a DN2500 running SR10.3 and the new tape library (/dev/rmts8, /dev/rmts12,etc) are all in place. Maybe I'm just being dense, but I don't understand how to use these with "wbak -to" and "rbak -from" options mentioned in a previous note. Any enlightenment would be greatly appreciated. -maureen
