I created a tape from an HP9000 4/8 GB DAT. My SCO customer has a 2GB tape drive and can not read the tape. This is my only SCO customer. What is the proper command to create this tape so they can read it? Using following...

find FILE -print -depth | cpio -ocvB > /dev/rmt/0mn

All other customers running HPUX can read the tape.
 
try using a DG90 tape or a tape from the 2GB unit, the backup command looks fine.
restore using, cpio -icdBmvu </dev/rStp0 (or /dev/rmt/0mn )
