I've got a DLT 7000 inside a tape library and I'm trying to figure out
what's the right density code to set with mt to get the hardware
compression turned on and thus be able to put something more than 35GB
on a tape.  With my old tape drive, outside a library, I could just put
the tape in and use the selector on the front to pick the compression
and format.  Inside the library that doesn't work so good, so I'm
assuming that mt setdensity <code> is the right answer.  Does anyone
know more about this?

Thanks.
