Element | Purpose | Key Considerations |
---|---|---|
-b blocksize | Specifies in kilobytes the block size of the tape device | Requirement: The blocksize must
be an integer. Additional Information: This option overrides the default value in TAPEBLK or LTAPEBLK. |
-l | Directs onunload to read the values for tape device, block size, and tape size from LTAPEDEV, LTAPEBLK, and LTAPESIZE, respectively | None. |
-s tapesize | Specifies in kilobytes the amount of data that can be stored on the tape | Requirement: The tapesize must
be an integer. To write to the end of the tape, specify a tape size
of 0. If you do not specify 0, then the maximum tapesize is 2 097 151 KB. Additional Information: This option overrides the default value in TAPESIZE or LTAPESIZE. |
-t source | Specifies the path name of the file on disk or of the tape device where the input tape is mounted | Additional Information: This option overrides the tape device specified by TAPEDEV or LTAPEDEV. The path name must be a valid path name. |
