It can be the result of one of these 2 cases :

1) The jukebox has a stuck drive or a tape blocked
into a drive. NetWorker tries to eject the tape and
waits for tape to be offlined to put it back into its bin slot.
If tape is not offlined within timeout, then networker will claim
about "read open error, I/O error" then will retry jukebox
offline until timeout (abort).

If it's the case, correct drive state(*) and then retry eject or
disable the device 
(*)Open jukebox, unloading/loading back tape into same drive
and be sure OS can see the device. Maybe the read open error
is caused by OS not seeing the device anymore (maybe a SCSI<->FC bridge
hang).

2) NetWorker still think that a tape is loaded into a drive
but it's not. Go to detailed jukebox view and look for 
"loaded barcode" "loaded volume" and "loaded slot"
Look for possible lines filled with "-"
It's so, run "nsrjb -HE" then "nsrjb -I"

HTH,

Thierry
