Hmmm. Looks like backspacing is broken. There are a number of Storage Daemon configuration options you may try. BSF at EOM = Yes and TWO EOF = Yes seem like good ideas. You might try Backward Space Record = No (and maybe Backward Space File = No); this will slow performance but may let it reposition correctly. Also, I assume that your other tape tools are able to do this kind of stuff? I mean, it'd be frustrating to spend a lot of time only to find out that your drive was out of alignment and wasn't really rewinding accurately so your backwards repositions were, in fact, broken.
