About no rewind device files

UNIX servers only.

Although both rewind and no rewind on close device files are usually available, NetBackup requires only the no rewind device file. A no rewind device remains at its current position on a close operation. On some versions of UNIX, the device file name may be preceded or followed by the letter n.

Device files are in the /dev directory on the UNIX host. If the entries do not exist, create them as explained in the NetBackup Device Configuration Guide.
