2242.0. "RMUbackup and COMP???" by MUNICH::REIN (How come holes in SWISS CHEESE??) Wed Apr 16 1997 13:29

    Hallo,
    
    At our customer DETEMOBIL they reconfigured their database backup to
    pur SLS via RDF.
    
    The first save operation went well, but they used 8 tape cartridges
    using SLS. Normal Online save used only 4 cartridges.
    
    I found, that they setup the tk87k with density "comp",
    but in the backup command, there is no /media or/dens translation
    
    
    What we have to do, that RMU/SLS uses "comp"
    
    regards

    I already mentioned this RMU problem in note 1592 :
    
    I found a workaround for my customer by using "DENSITY := 1" in the SBK

    Can SLS engineering please consider making a permanent solution by adding 
    some checks to SYSBAK.COM ?, something like (I did NOT test this) 
    
    $if (DENSITY.eqs."COMP").and.(BACKUP_TYPE.eqs."RMUBACKUP") then DENSITY:=1
