CDI is introduced in version 7.x and is for Windows and Unix available, but
Mark uses NetWorker 6.x. 
Mark take a look at cabling and termination and clean the drives, this is
the other common issue for your problem.

uxag_70 page 24:

Common Device Interface
The common device interface (CDI) allows the NetWorker server to send
commands to tape devices. CDI support can be set in one of two options in
the
CDI attribute of the Device resource:
? Not Used?this means the CDI feature is not enabled.
? SCSI Command? when this option is enabled, it means the NetWorker
software is using the new method to send explicit SCSI commands to tape
devices.
When the CDI feature is enabled, it does the following:
? Provides clearer tape status messages.
? Informs you when a tape is write protected.
? Enables Tape Alert which provides diagnostic information for devices.
Although the CDI feature can be disabled through selecting the Not Used
option, this method can be time-consuming if there are a large number of
devices.

Mark,

I believe the CDI attribute only applies to MS Windows servers, not Solaris
as you said you have.

I hate to sound stupid, but I could not find the CDI settings. Where are
they? Is there a command line way to make the changes?

Turn CDI off (open the device resource and change the attribute "CDI" from
"SCSI commands" to "not used") Christo

We are having a problem with NetWorker where whenever we run a backup, even
a small one, it marks the tape full right away.

Any ideas?

Mark
