Where would you restore it in a disaster situation?

Subject:        Question on Save Command(s) paremeter USEOPTBLK

Hi Folks !

On the various save commands there is a parameter USEOPTBLK (Use optimum
block) - "Performance may improve, but the tape volume that is created
is only compatible with a device that supports the block size used."
(per the help text).

IS that something to be concerned with ? We only have one tape drive
(the IBM 9427-210 Cartridge unit...) and any speed improvement would be
GREAT !

Thanks !

Chuck
