This is the device the backup is written to
Backup-Device

It can be any tape device with the capability to distinguish between several files on the media. It is mandatory to supply the no-rewind device here, otherwise this package won't work properly.

Suitable device names for some OS-es: AIX: /dev/rmt0.1 Solaris: /dev/rmt/0bn IRIX: /dev/rmt/tps0d4nr HP-UX: /dev/rmt/0hn Linux: /dev/nst0 Digital UNIX: /dev/nrmt0h

If the drive has a media handler attached, a specifier for this may follow the device name. The format for this is =@#^ , for example =1@/dev/sg0#6^2 . Whitespace before and following the special characters = @ and # is allowed for readability. The example means: The drive is number 1 in the changer, /dev/sg0 is the changer device, that has 6 media slots and 2 loadbays. The parts = and ^ are optional
