Been getting the same problem here. Seems to be some problem with labeling... at least that's what we have found. In some cases we are able to getting things moving again by relabeling the tape with a new barcode and trying again.

We are also getting errors at the same time about duplicate media in the tape database, even though all IDs are unique.

here is another one in the same group...
Failed false operation: "Load"; operation device: "\\.\Tape1"; operation slots: " 2"; write enabled: "Yes"; Expected volume ID `3509667549' for volume `079007'. The actual volume ID is `2850665173'., Expected volume ID `3509667549' for volume `079007'. The actual volume ID is `2850665173'. 85

No idea what's going on, but it looks like it's time to call support.

Here's a weird one. I have NW 7.4 on Win2003 Enterrpise server. I'm
labeling some new tapes (via script), and I've started getting this:

Info: Operation `Verify label' in progress on device `\\.\Tape2'

Error: fsr 1 (read): drive status is The tape drive is ready for use
39077:nsrjb: error, Jukebox command terminated with errors.

Knowledgebase on Powerlink searches turn up nothing, nor does a web search
(everything refers to Linux, and this is a Windows server).

(BTW ... love that error message - "drive status is: The tape drive is
ready for use". Informative, that is ... :-))

I can't label using the GUI, after it fails, either. I suppose I could try
stopping all NW services and re-starting ...
