Re: 6390 Tape Drive Density

["Valentin Petrov" <vpetrov@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We have the same tape drive – but I am not aware that it could store 14GB on
a single 160m tape.
You have options for the density of the tape when initializing. Go and check
INZTAP  -  F4 then to tape density – F4 again – and see your options. But
for me the largest size is 7GB.
