My most recent job failed with the following errors:
02-Feb 12:24 Scalar-i40 JobId 123: Committing spooled data to Volume
"000012". Despooling 577,083,278,824 bytes ...
02-Feb 12:24 Scalar-i40 JobId 123: Error: block.c:608 Write error at
2744:0 on device "Drive0" (/dev/st1). ERR=No such device or address.
02-Feb 12:24 Scalar-i40 JobId 123: Error: Error writing final EOF to

dev.c:1566 ioctl MTWEOF error on "Drive0" (/dev/st1). ERR=No such device.

Bytes=2,738,467,243,008 Blocks=42,448,958 at 02-Feb-2020 12:24.
So I reran the job on a new tape, and received the same error about
failing to write the End of File.

So the error does not seem to be tied to bad media. The system did pass
the span tapes test when setup, and has spanned a dozen or so other
volumes without error. The Bacula-Users archive indicates that this
might be hardware failure, but the drives still pass the Quantum Scalar
internal tests for function. (These are HP Ultrium 6-SCSI drives), so
the vendor, at least, does not think they are failing.
Any ideas as to the cause if this error? The log indicates a a HW
problem so I don't think my config could be causing this.
