But I think the problem is deeper: if it is indeed that on this
machine rewind flags success too early, or that subsequent requests
do not block until the rewind is completely finished, then I believe
amlabel will have the same problem: it writes the label, rewinds, and
verifies if the label was written correctly.
Just a dumb question, as I didn't follow the whole thread: Did you
check for scsi errors in the syslog? I ask that because I had a
somewhat similar problem with a LTO-3 drive attached to a linux box via
an Emulex Fibre Channel card. Due to a bug in the processing of tagged
scsi commands, the tape ejected after some time with an io error.
Moving to a recent kernel fixed the problem. These symptoms also sound
like a problem on the scsi or driver level.
Just my € 0.01, though...
Cheers, Albrecht.
