Hope you can help....

I am running a native 2 gig tape drive which is identified by FreeBSD as
the Archive Python.  All the mt commands work etc..

My problem is when I use the DUMP command to backup a files system I can
only get about 30 megs on the tape and it says it is full.

Is there a setting where I need to tell the system the size or length of
tape??  What seems to be going on here?

Thanks for any help!

Mike
