<p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />If you plan to duplicate the virtual tape volumes to physical
tape devices, you need to make sure that you create the virtual tape volumes
by using a block size that is compatible with your physical tape device. If
you are unsure what block size your tape device supports, you can view the
supported block size information by using <span class="keyword">iSeries™ Navigator</span> to
display the properties of your physical tape device.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
