Subject:   Cron job dump requires tape change
Message-ID:  <5.2.1.1.0.20030718180340.00a7d208@mail.bellsouth.net>

I hope I am not asking a NewB question, but I read through dump and cron 
and see no obvious way to run a nightly dump through cron AND allow user 
intervention to change the tape.

I am running a DDS2 tape drive and trying to backup around 12GB. The tape 
runs to the end, issues the end of tape, and then dump fails.

TIA
Bob
