Re: Tape drive to compress

Hi Dwayne,

which type/model of tape drive is this ?

You can define USEOPTBLK *NO on a save command (this is from memory, not at a system in the moment)
to get compression working.
Does the drive support hardware compression ?

HTH,
Regards from Germany,
Philipp

Good Morning,

We are getting the following error on a tape backup:


Message . . . . :   Data compression not performed.


Cause . . . . . : Value *YES was specified on the DTACPR parameter. Data compression is not performed when optimum block size is used. 


What do we need to change?
