Tivoli Tape Zero percent
Hii all,
If i insert zero percent tape in tivoli. Then tivoli will write data on it.
But zero percent tape has some files inside, its not a scratch tape.
Because if we recover data then tivoli can ask for zero percent tape.
But when tivoli will write data on a zero percent tape what will happen with the old data in zero percent tape. Is tivoli overwrite zero percent tape data completely or that data will be there and tivoli will use remainig area of the tape?
I'm confuse on it pls help me out.
takecare.

NAME
ammt - Amanda version of mt
SYNOPSIS
ammt [ -d ] [ -f|-t device ] command [ count ]
DESCRIPTION
Ammt provides just enough of the standard mt command for the needs of Amanda. This is handy when doing a full restore and the standard mt
program has not yet been found.
Ammt also provides access to the Amanda output drivers that support various tape simulations.
See the amanda(8) man page for more details about Amanda. See the OUTPUT DRIVERS section of amanda(8) for more information on the Amanda
output drivers.

-d Turn on debugging output.
-f device
Access tape device device. If not specified, the TAPE environment variable is used.
-t device
Same as -f.

fsf count
Skip forward count (default: 1) files.
bsf count
Skip backward count (default: 1) files.

rewind Rewind to beginning of tape.
offline|rewoffl
Rewind to beginning of tape and unload the tape from the drive.
status Report status information about the drive. Which data reported, and what it means, depends on the underlying operating system, and
