NAME

ddstool - simple shell script to manage dds tapes

SYNOPSIS

ddstool <command> <options>

DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the ddstool command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution (but may be used by others), because the original program does not have a manual page. First label a tape: ddstool create-label 'unique-string and more' To archive something: ddstool append pathnames... To delete the old index-files and make a new label: ddstool new-label 'unique-string and more strings' Each index is stored by the pathnames: $A/$unique-string.$file-number (soft link) $A/$timestamp-of-the-tapelabel.$file-number (file)
