Hi all,

by the way, wish all of you all the best things for this new year.

My problem is that I frequently have these messages:

*** A TAPE ERROR OCCURRED: [reading label: Input/output error].

Thinking this could be an SCSI issue, I installed a second SCSI controller on my backup server and attached the tape drive on it, but the problem still remains. Somehow, I now have this in my kernel messages (which didn't happen when I only had one SCSI controller):

Jan 16 16:17:09 parasy kernel: st0: Error with sense data: Info fld=0x2, Current st09:00: sense key Medium Error

Jan 16 16:17:09 parasy kernel: Additional sense indicates Write error


Any ideas or indications on this issue are greatly appreciated.

You changed controllers, what about cables and terminator?

Regards.
