Using Symbolic Links and a Remote Device (UNIX)

TAPEDEV can be a symbolic link, enabling you to switch between tape devices without changing the pathname that TAPEDEV specifies.

Use the following syntax to specify a tape device attached to another host computer:

host_machine_name:tape_device_pathname

The following example specifies a tape device on the host computer kyoto:

kyoto:/dev/rmt01
