Tape drive incorrectly reports that it is write-protected   
bug 1232383 


Is this bug integrated in S10? we do see similar bug with S10 on sparc systems? 
My application (amanda) works fine with tape drive, but on some occasions 
closing the tape device fails, but consecutive open, reads/writes work fine.

$ amlabel -f tape1 tape1-000
Reading label...
Found Amanda tape tape1-000, tape is active
Writing label tape1-000..
Checking label...
Success!
