Good Afternoon

Does anyone know if it is possibel to eject a DDS tape from the command line?

This is possible in AIX using tctl -f <devivce> offline

Thanks

tape unload does exactly what it says on the tin, that's good enough for me.


Thank you both

No need to apologise, It could have been the other way round.
