that we aren't used to seeing in those circumstances.
I'd have taken ALL DUMPS TO HOLDING DISK to normally mean

Well, your taper line in the report says it wrote 19.9G to tape, and your
failed dump was trying to write 6.8G. How big are your tapes, and what is

Frank,
I think Joshua nailed it but your right, may be we can

The drive is in fact a DLT 4000 on a SunOS 5.6 system (we
are in process of migrating to a new R280 with LTO drive
but that process is ongoing...).
