-b blocksize Specifies in kilobytes the block size of the tape device Restrictions: Unsigned integer. Must specify the block size of the tape device.

Additional Information: This option overrides the default value in TAPEBLK or LTAPEBLK.

-l Directs onload to read the values for tape device, block size, and tape size from the configuration parameters LTAPEDEV, LTAPEBLK, and LTAPESIZE, respectively Additional Information: If you specify -l ,and then -b, -s, or -t, the value that you specify overrides the value in the configuration file.
-s tapesize Specifies in kilobytes the amount of data that the database server can store on the tape Restrictions: Unsigned integer. If you do not specify 0, then the maximum tapesize is 2,097,151 kilobytes.

Additional Information: This option overrides the default value in TAPESIZE or LTAPESIZE. To write to the end of the tape, specify a tape size of 0.

-t source Specifies the pathname of the file on disk or of the tape device where the input tape is mounted Restriction: Must be a legal pathname.

Additional Information: This option overrides the tape device that TAPEDEV or LTAPEDEV specifies.
