All the tapes stay online in our library.  The library is housed in a data 
center (in a very controlled environment).  

Just FYI, I started auditing the tapes that showed errors and sure enough, 
there have been around 100 files deleted off about 5 volumes (audit vol XXXXXXX 
fix=yes).  The whole tape does not seem to be affected, just certain files.  
Could there be something that is causing file corruption when the data is 
copied from the client machines?  Should we move the data off these tapes and 
discard them, just to be sure?

thanks.
Peter
