Hi folks,
while our Bacula setup worked flawlessly for the last few months, last night's
backup (starting at 4:20am, to an HP LTO-2 drive, with the volume Sunday-0001
in the drive) didn't exhibit the usual behavior. Our system console shows an
entry
Oct 30 04:20:57 erebor st0: Error with sense data: <6>st0: Current: sense
key=0x3
Oct 30 04:20:57 erebor ASC=0x14 ASCQ=0x0
This is : Write Error; Recorded entity not found.
I think the drive fails verifying (reading) the just written sector.

3) In general, how common are such media errors on LTO-2 tapes? This is the
first time we are using such a drive, so we don't have any experience with
it. In contrast, with our DLT drives, we never had a single media error over
the last 4 years.
We are using two LTO-2 drives (Certance) with 40 tapes without any error since
10 months now. Maybe the drive (or tape) got damaged on shipment? If it is an
used drive, check if the "needs cleaning" light (usually called status) is on.
