Problem resolved seems to be due to hanging bprd processes or master
server out of memory.

Are your drives up?  tpconfig -dl on the media server
All drives are UP

Are they working properly?  vmoprcmd -d ds on the media server
All working properly


Are the tapes ok? Tapes are fine
bpmedialist shows them? yes

What do the logs say? The failed restores are not generating any logs,
which ones should I be looking at in particular.

I have also cleared all scsi reserves on the drives (vmoprcmd
-crawlreleasebyname)

Note that this is a flashbackup-windows policy.
