|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Nm
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility is used by the remote dump and restore programs
|
|
in manipulating a magnetic tape drive through an interprocess
|
|
communication connection.
|
|
It is normally started up with an
|
|
.Xr rcmd 3
|
|
call.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility accepts requests specific to the manipulation of
|
|
magnetic tapes, performs the commands, then responds with
|
|
a status indication.
|
|
All responses are in
|
|
.Tn ASCII
|
|
and in
|
|
one of two forms.
|
|
Successful commands have responses of:
|
|
.Bd -ragged -offset indent
|
|
.Sm off
|
|
.Sy A Ar number No \en
|
|
.Sm on
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Ar Number
|
|
is an
|
|
.Tn ASCII
|
|
representation of a decimal number.
|
|
Unsuccessful commands are responded to with:
|
|
.Bd -ragged -offset indent
|
|
.Sm off
|
|
.Xo Sy E Ar error-number
|
|
.No \en Ar error-message
|
|
.No \en
|
|
.Xc
|
|
.Sm on
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Ar Error-number
|
|
is one of the possible error
|
|
numbers described in
|
|
.Xr intro 2
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar error-message
|
|
is the corresponding error string as printed
|
|
from a call to
|
|
.Xr perror 3 .
|
|
The protocol is comprised of the
|
|
following commands, which are sent as indicated - no spaces are supplied
|
|
between the command and its arguments, or between its arguments, and
|
|
.Ql \en
|
|
indicates that a newline should be supplied:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.Sm off
|
|
.It Xo Sy \&O Ar device
|
|
.No \en Ar mode No \en
|
|
.Xc
|
|
.Sm on
|
|
Open the specified
|
|
.Ar device
|
|
using the indicated
|
|
.Ar mode .
|
|
.Ar Device
|
|
is a full pathname and
|
|
.Ar mode
|
|
is an
|
|
.Tn ASCII
|
|
representation of a decimal
|
|
number suitable for passing to
|
|
.Xr open 2 .
|
|
If a device had already been opened, it is
|
|
closed before a new open is performed.
|
|
.Sm off
|
|
.It Xo Sy C Ar device No \en
|
|
.Xc
|
|
.Sm on
|
|
Close the currently open device.
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar device
|
|
specified is ignored.
|
|
.Sm off
|
|
.It Xo Sy L
|
|
.Ar whence No \en
|
|
.Ar offset No \en
|
|
.Xc
|
|
.Sm on
|
|
Perform an
|
|
.Xr lseek 2
|
|
operation using the specified parameters.
|
|
The response value is that returned from the
|
|
.Xr lseek 2
|
|
call.
|
|
.Sm off
|
|
.It Sy W Ar count No \en
|
|
.Sm on
|
|
Write data onto the open device.
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility reads
|
|
.Ar count
|
|
bytes from the connection, aborting if
|
|
a premature end-of-file is encountered.
|
|
The response value is that returned from
|
|
the
|
|
.Xr write 2
|
|
call.
|
|
.Sm off
|
|
.It Sy R Ar count No \en
|
|
.Sm on
|
|
Read
|
|
.Ar count
|
|
bytes of data from the open device.
|
|
If
|
|
.Ar count
|
|
exceeds the size of the data buffer (10 kilobytes), it is
|
|
truncated to the data buffer size.
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility then performs the requested
|
|
.Xr read 2
|
|
and responds with
|
|
.Sm off
|
|
.Sy A Ar count-read No \en
|
|
.Sm on
|
|
if the read was
|
|
successful; otherwise an error in the
|
|
standard format is returned.
|
|
If the read
|
|
was successful, the data read is then sent.
|
|
.Sm off
|
|
.It Xo Sy I Ar operation
|
|
.No \en Ar count No \en
|
|
.Xc
|
|
.Sm on
|
|
Perform a
|
|
.Dv MTIOCOP
|
|
.Xr ioctl 2
|
|
command using the specified parameters.
|
|
The parameters are interpreted as the
|
|
.Tn ASCII
|
|
representations of the decimal values
|
|
to place in the
|
|
.Ar mt_op
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar mt_count
|
|
fields of the structure used in the
|
|
.Xr ioctl 2
|
|
call.
|
|
The return value is the
|
|
.Ar count
|
|
parameter when the operation is successful.
|
|
.It Sy S
|
|
Return the status of the open device, as
|
|
obtained with a
|
|
.Dv MTIOCGET
|
|
.Xr ioctl 2
|
|
call.
|
|
If the operation was successful,
|
|
an ``ack'' is sent with the size of the
|
|
status buffer, then the status buffer is
|
|
sent (in binary).
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Any other command causes
|
|
.Nm
|
|
to exit.
|
|
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
All responses are of the form described above.
