One possible cause of the problem is tape drive/library issues, which
seems to be a common element in your events.  Your library may have
event logging, and if so you could check its records, by time, to see
if anything of interest in there.  TapeAlert may be of some help.  If
warranted, you could employ an unused tape to exercise tape mount/
unmount across your tape drives, as via mtlib or the like, and see if
any are a problem.  To further isolate whether the issue is tape, you
could direct some TSM DB backups to FILE devclass and see if that non-
tape approach runs without issue.  Check all drives for a consistent,
recent firmware level, and see what tape device driver is in play.
