What do you think is causing this, and how on earth can I stop it??! Drive /dev/rmt/3hbn still obeys commands such as "nsrjb -L -S 100 -f /dev/rmt/3hbn" so the drive seems to still work...

Andrew, have you tried loading that cleaning tape via the command

  nsrjb -L -f /dev/rmt/3hbn -S 373

and does the tape library itself show any error messages?

Could that cleaning cartridge be defective?
