About ltfs_ordered_copy

How can I get the order of files on the tape?

Currently my ltfs version is 2.4.6.1, and ltfs_order_copy can be used normally

[piste-jp]

ltfs_ordered_copy fetches the ltfs.startblock (virtual) extended attribute of each target file and sorts by ascending order.

You can see the detail description about virtual extended attribute on LTFS below. https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/spectrum-archive-sde/2.4.5?topic=attributes-virtual-extended
