Is there a command that will show the Unix name of a tape device? (/dev/rmt/1)If not, where could I find this info?
Thanks,
R.G

Do you mean: Is there a way to figure out which device link goes to which physical tape drive?

Yes, I think so. I am trying to look at what is being backed up to tape on a server in a remote location, I was just informed that this box is a Linux box and not Unix, please disregard my question.
Sorry,
RG
