Penny,

Also you should have specific error messages in /nsr/logs/daemon.log
that should help explain what happened.

Appears like your tape drive is going south.  It marked the volume full after 
writing only 9G of
data on a 40G tape.  Later it marked a volume full after 2G of 40G.  Are there 
any errors in uerf
-R that have to do with the tape device?
