You can use the Volume Backup/Restore options in many tape backup programs.
Some manufacturers currently support backing up and restoring individual
SCSI partitions, while others are working on it. The only people who have
*really* done it right, apparently, are Irwin Magnetics. I have mixed
feelings about their hardware but they're the only people who have actually
written a genuine A/UX driver for a tape unit (as far as I know).
