- NAME
- mt - magnetic tape control
- SYNOPSIS
- mt [-f device] [count]
- DESCRIPTION
- Mt is a user interface to the magnetic tape commands described in
- mtio(4). It allows one to space a tape forwards or backwards, write end
- of file markers, etc.
- With the -f option a tape device can be named, otherwise the environment
- variable TAPE is used if set, otherwise the default device /dev/nrst4 is
- assumed. Standard input is used if the tape name is a dash (-). The
- count argument is used to tell how many blocks or files to space or how
- many file markers to write. It may be a C-style decimal, octal or
- hexadecimal constant, by default "1".
- Command is the action to perform, it may be one of the following, or any
- unambiguous prefix (like st for status):
- eof, weof Write count end-of-file markers.
- fsf Forward space count file markers.
- fsr Forward space count records. (The size of a record
- depends on the tape, and may even be variable, depending
- on the size of the writes.)
- bsf Backwards space count files. The count may be zero to
- backspace to the start of the current file. (A tape
- device need not support backwards movement, or may be very
- slow doing it. Rewinding and forward spacing may be
- better.)
- bsr Backwards space count records. The tape is positioned
- after the last block of the previous file if you hit a
- filemark when spacing backwards. The block count is set
- to -1 to indicate that the driver has no idea where it is
- on the previous file.
- eom Forward space to the end of media.
- rewind Rewind the tape.
- offline, rewoffl
- Rewind and take offline. This may cause some drives to
- eject the tape.

- status Shows the status of the drive, the sense key of the last
- SCSI error, current file number, current record number,
- residual count if the last command that encountered end-
- of-file, and the current block size.
- retension Removes tape tension by winding and rewinding the tape
- completely.
- erase Erases the tape completely and rewinds it.
- density Sets the density code to read or write the tape to count.
- Density codes supported depend on the drive. This command
- need not be used if the drive senses the proper density on
- read and can only write one density.
- blksize, blocksize
- Sets the block size used to read or write the tape to
- count. This command may be used to select a fixed block
- size for a variable block size tape. This will speed up
- I/O for small block sizes. Use a zero count to use
- variable sized blocks again.
- ENVIRONMENT
- TAPE Tape drive to use if set.
- FILES
- /dev/nrst4 Default tape device.
