The first is probably a consequence of the second -- a dump was aborted because the server ran out of tape, and as a consequence sendbackup closed the index stream, which caused the tar -tf to fail, which caused the error you see in the sendbackup log.
But things can't just fail because it runs out of tape, that's usual with "runtapes > 1", isn't it ?
It sounds like your changer is taking a long time to change tapes, and *that* may be causing the timeouts. Is that possible?
When I trigger a tape change during the day with "amtape daily slot x" it works in a reasonable time, maybe 2 minutes or so.
Are you using tape spanning? Sorry if I'm asking redundant questions -- I've not been paying attention to this thread.
No spanning used yet, no. Would that help to continue dumping somehow? Stefan
