ARCserve 4.0 and Archive 525 configuration
issue
We have encountered a problem where ARCserve 4.0 will not function
correctly with a Archive 525 tape streamer even though SBACKUP will function correctly
with the same hardware configuration.
This is due to the Archive 525 tape streamer being set to use a 1024K
block size. For ARCserve to function correctly with the Archive 525, the tape streamer
needs to be set to 512K block size.

SBACKUP functions correctly because it is able to write to devices that
support both 512K and 1024K block size.
