automation of ontape on NT
I tried running the ontape facility from the NT scheduler. I included all
the necessary environment commands.
It does not work. Am I doing something stupid.
Is there a way of automating backups on NT.

Ontape asks you to press 'Enter' right after tape is in drive. Is your
script cares about that ? For more detailed help please send your script
file.

ontape waits for Enter key with message "Insert tape number...."
you can avoid this problem in your script using:
echo|ontape -s -L 0
