Hi, Has anyone encountered this before ? Platform IDS 7.30 UC6-1 on MP-RAS. My ontape level 0 spans two tapes. When I do a restore using ontape after I am finished with the first tape the message says , bad tape , expecting tape 2 , load tape 2 in /dev/rmt/c13t2d0s0 and press enter I load tape 2 and when it is finished with the restore it gives out this message again and does not exit the program. I interrupted the program , performed a shutdown and startup again and everything is working fine. Sathish Sadagopan
