Was anything else using the tape drives?  If you have 2 drives, and are
running space reclaimation, your restore won't start until the reclamiation
ends.  Same thing with migrations tying up the tape drives.  This is why I
always recomend an odd number of tape drives, and only allowing one fewer
migration process (controlled by migprocess setting) than tape drives.
