Hello..

I have a number of tapes showing as access=unavailable in the system.  I
have tried to change the state to readwrite to see if it would work
(maybe some kind of read / load issue) but that didn't work.   I have
then tried to change the state to readonly, and do a 'move data' command
to move the data on the tape onto a storage pool - but the activity log
shows when it tries to load the tape, it fails and the tape goes right
back to unavailable again. 

A q filespace and q occupancy shows there is data for my nodes on these
tapes which I really don't want to loose.   

What else can I do about this?
