Topic

Updated mt-st packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 5.

Description

The mt-st package contains the mt and st tape drive management programs. Mt (for
magnetic tape drives) and st (for SCSI tape devices) can control rewinding,
ejecting, skipping files and blocks and more.

This update fixes the following bug:

  • Prior to this update, it was not possible to use a symbolic name for the SILI

bit on the command line; the bit could only be specified as a hexadecimal
constant (0x4000). With this update, users can use the "sili" symbolic name on
the command line. (BZ#501014)

All users of mt-st are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix
this bug.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red
Hat Network to apply this update are available at
