I've found that I can't ever label tape. But there is more, I can't
tar to tape, it outputs I/O error.


lsscsi output is:


[0:0:0:0]    disk    ServeRA  raid 1           V1.0  /dev/sda
[0:1:0:0]    disk    IBM-ESXS VPA146C3-ETS10 N A650  -
[0:1:1:0]    disk    IBM-ESXS ST3146855SS      BA26  -
[0:3:0:0]    enclosu IBM-ESXS VSC7160          1.06  -
[0:3:1:0]    tape    IBM      HH LTO Gen 3     76B0  /dev/st0


Now, I doing :

mt -f /dev/nst0 erase

But I issue this command at 8:07 AM GMT, and now is 9:44 AM GMT, is it
common that it takes too much time?

Thanks in advance
