Error message is "ERR=broken pipe" and something with MTWEOF.
I had this problem with our 124T when the drive was faulty. It took quite a while to find the problem, but doing long reads and writes using dd eventually proved the problem, and Dell swapped the unit out. Our drive is a Quantum. Apparently the 124Ts with IBM drives are more reliable. If you have an IBM drive you can use the IBM itdt utility to test it, otherwise btape or dd are the best bet. Naturally, you may also have tape errors. Good luck. -- Rory Campbell-Lange r...@campbell-lange.net Campbell-Lange Workshop www.campbell-lange.net 0207 6311 555 3 Tottenham Street London W1T 2AF Registered in England No. 04551928 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Benefiting from Server Virtualization: Beyond Initial Workload Consolidation -- Increasing the use of server virtualization is a top priority.Virtualization can reduce costs, simplify management, and improve application availability and disaster protection.
