of that backup.
The last backup before that will be renamend with a time stamp.

This process does not work if the backup file gets bigger than
2GB,
the backup will fail with this error message:
>ontape -s -L 0

20 percent done.
30 percent done.
40 percent done.
50 percent done.
60 percent done.
70 percent done.
100 percent done.
