RMT(8) BSD System Manager's Manual RMT(8)
NAME
rmt -- remote magtape protocol module
SYNOPSIS
rmt
DESCRIPTION
The rmt utility is used by the remote dump and restore programs in manipulating a magnetic tape drive through an interprocess communication
connection. It is normally started up with an rcmd(3) call.
The rmt utility accepts requests specific to the manipulation of magnetic tapes, performs the commands, then responds with a status indica-
tion. All responses are in ASCII and in one of two forms. Successful commands have responses of:
Anumber
Number is an ASCII representation of a decimal number. Unsuccessful commands are responded to with:
Eerror-number
error-message
Error-number is one of the possible error numbers described in intro(2) and error-message is the corresponding error string as printed from a
call to perror(3). The protocol is comprised of the following commands, which are sent as indicated - no spaces are supplied between the
command and its arguments, or between its arguments, and '
' indicates that a newline should be supplied:
Odevice
mode
Open the specified device using the indicated mode. Device is a full pathname and mode is an ASCII representation of a decimal num-
ber suitable for passing to open(2). If a device had already been opened, it is closed before a new open is performed.
Cdevice
Close the currently open device. The device specified is ignored.
Lwhence
offset
Perform an lseek(2) operation using the specified parameters. The response value is that returned from the lseek(2) call.
Wcount
Write data onto the open device. The rmt utility reads count bytes from the connection, aborting if a premature end-of-file is
encountered. The response value is that returned from the write(2) call.
Rcount
Read count bytes of data from the open device. If count exceeds the size of the data buffer (10 kilobytes), it is truncated to the
data buffer size. The rmt utility then performs the requested read(2) and responds with Acount-read
if the read was successful;
otherwise an error in the standard format is returned. If the read was successful, the data read is then sent.
Ioperation
count
Perform a MTIOCOP ioctl(2) command using the specified parameters. The parameters are interpreted as the ASCII representations of
the decimal values to place in the mt_op and mt_count fields of the structure used in the ioctl(2) call. The return value is the
count parameter when the operation is successful.
S Return the status of the open device, as obtained with a MTIOCGET ioctl(2) call. If the operation was successful, an ``ack'' is sent
with the size of the status buffer, then the status buffer is sent (in binary).
Any other command causes rmt to exit.
DIAGNOSTICS
All responses are of the form described above.
SEE ALSO
rcmd(3), mtio(4), rdump(8), rrestore(8)
HISTORY
The rmt utility appeared in 4.2BSD.
BUGS
People should be discouraged from using this for a remote file access protocol.
