Now that you mention it... I have an open incident with the manufacturer of
our tape library about mount errors during load/unload on two of the drives.
To date, I have been worried about data loss and have been amazed that I am
not experiencing any. Then, I notice this....  Well, at least the tapes are
set aside after TSM encounters a load/unload failure. I'll bet this is what
is causing this problem!!!

So, I clean up the tapes and keep an eye on the situation.

Thanks all!
