SCSI tape devices (i.e., DDS, DLT)
- /dev/[n]st0, /dev/[n]st1, etc.
- devices with 'n' do not automatically rewind
Use the mt utility to control tape drive
- mt -f /dev/st0 rewind (Rewind)
- mt -f /dev/st0 fsf 50 (Position)
- mt -f /dev/st0 offline (Eject)
- mt -f /dev/st0 erase (Erase)
- mt -f /dev/st0 rewoff (Rewind, Eject)
