Solaris, need to duplicate tapes

[Kems]

Hi,

I know how to dump and restore a filesystem using ufsdump and ufsrestore. I've done back up of my filesystem on a tape using :

ufsdump 0cf /dev/rmt/0n /

Now, i need to duplicate the tapes (i got two Scsi Tapes reader) on a SunFire280 running SOlaris 2.8.

Is there a command to duplicate tapes (or a guru pipeline or should i restore FS and dump it again ?

Thank you if you have time to answer, first week on a solaris
Kems.

Try this,
if <---- input file, in this case the drive is 0h.
of <---- ouput file, in this case the drive is 1h.

dd if=/dev/rmt/0h of=/dev/rmt/1h

you can 'man dd' command for more details.
