[SunHELP] [SunHELP]Synopsis: script to duplicate a dlt tape

[stephen price]

Looks like tcopy by itself will indeed do what I want
to do.

The problem - at first try - tcopy only copied the
first session on the tape.  Looking at the man pages
(on Solaris8), it didn't say anything about how to get
it to copy the full tape.

However, the man page in Solaris9 correctly identifies
that if you use Berkley naming conventions, tcopy will
indeed do full tape copy.  

Interesting that a google search failed to find that
tidbit.  Google also missed an old Sunsolve article on
the very topic.
