I've got a script that catches frozen media, unfreezes it, then logs the
number.  If that media is frozen again I leave it frozen, report it, and
toss it.  I call it my "second chance" script.

I will unfreeze them and see what happens.
I want to be careful because they do contain valid data on them!

Yes, but keep a log of those ids.  They may in fact be bad which is why they
were frozen to begin with.

Sorry guys, but I have another issue as well (just advice really to ensure I
have done the right thing).
Just checked the status of my backups and got Status 85 Media Error. All
backups are done on NT - Master Server / Media Server NT too.

Checked the application & system logs where the backups were taking place
and noticed 2 errors from Netbackup, stating it is downing drive 1 and drive
2. (these are logged as separate events).
Checked the Media Lists - tapes that it tried to use for the Backups are now
frozen.

Restarted the backups again using new tapes, and its worked fine. I then
upped the drives and tried other backups - no problems reported yet! Seems
to be running fine though.

I don't believe there is a drive configuration problem - but is there a way
these tapes could be used again if I unfreeze them?
