copy_in_cmdLocate this document in the navigation structure

This parameter defines the command to read data from remote tape devices.

copy_in_cmd = <cmd>
         

Default value: none

You must enter a value before you switch to “remote piping”, that is, backup_dev_type = pipe|pipe_auto|pipe_box.

This parameter specification is only useful in combination with parameters remote_host and remote_user for reading from remote systems.

Example

copy_in_cmd = "dd bs=64k if=$",

However, you can also use higher blocking to improve performance. The $ character is replaced by the device address. Do not forget to enclose the parameter specifications composed of several values in double quotes.
