If you need to copy the contents of a magnetic tape to another magnetic tape, it is a fairly easy task. However, prior to copying, ensure tapes are free of errors and rewound. Here is the syntax.
# mt -f /dev/rmt/0 rewind
# mt -f /dev/rmt/1 rewind
# tcopy /dev/rmt/0 /dev/rmt/1

The tcopy utility requires the use of Berkeley-compatible device names. For example,
example% tcopy /dev/rmt/1b /dev/rmt/2b
