# tar -xvf deviceChange tape and press the Enter key:
tar: tape read error: #
For example, the standard device we recommend using is:
/dev/rmt/tps0d1nsthen the correct device is the same device with a 'v' appended to the end, i.e.
/dev/rmt/tps0d0nsvNOTE: The convention on naming the device is
/dev/{r}mt/tps<controller-#>d<ID-#>{nr}{ns}{v}{.density}If this device does not exist it must be 'made'.
To make the device, first become root and then:
# cd /dev # MAKEDEV devicewhere the device depends on the situation. The most common is 'tps'. For example, to make all the tps devices, then
# cd /dev # MAKEDEV tps
