Sounds like you may have a bad tape drive.
I have seen this when a tape drive (or robot arm) was bad. NB would freeze
all tapes.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Help! All Tapes From Scratch Gone - All jobs failed :(
Morning
Just come in, to find every job, bar one policy failed with status 96 - On
Friday I kicked off a full backup, which worked fine.
When a 2nd Policy started to run on Saturday 9:51 (which is a SAN Media
Server), it appears to have gobbled up ALL tapes in the Scratch Pool.
Therefore EVERY single job failed as no tapes were available.
Media List shows the tapes are in a frozen state. I have unfrozen them (as
none were even written to), and they are now back in the Scratch.
I am going to try another backup again to see what happens, but wondered if
anyone has seen this, or any advice!?!?
Thanks alot !
Regards
Simon Weaver
