Hi, I have this problem. I use IDS 7.31 on IRIX 6.5.4. It is on-line and everything is O.K. What I need is to restore a last week backup. I went off-line and tried: ontape -r but got this error: Tape defunction ioctl failed code -1 errno 28. Errno 28 is no space on device. Does anyone know what's the problem? What device is ment? I have plenty of space in /tmp. Thank you very much for reply. Martin
