Hi, I have problem with Amanda recently. The tape rate was a little bit slow from the very beginning but it wouldn't hang until recently. The following is a process list and one of the taper process is hang with state D. Does anyone have the same problem? How could it be solved?

It only has 193KB/s sometimes to dump from a local harddrive. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Ben
