Java 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
tcopy - copy a magnetic tape SYNOPSIS
tcopy source [destination] DESCRIPTION
The tcopy utility copies the magnetic tape mounted on the tape drive specified by the source argument. The only assumption made about the contents of a tape is that there are two tape marks at the end. When only a source drive is specified, tcopy scans the tape, and displays information about the sizes of records and tape files. If a des- tination is specified, tcopy makes a copies the source tape onto the destination tape, with blocking preserved. As it copies, tcopy pro- duces the same output as it does when only scanning a tape. The tcopy utility requires the use of Berkeley-compatible device names. For example, example% tcopy /dev/rmt/1b /dev/rmt/2b ATTRIBUTES
