Bacula does this at times. I have this happen 1 time per 3 months.
Stop bacula-sd. Then unload the st driver then the scsi driver. Then
try to unload the tape manually in the archive. Then reverse your
steps. And finally update slots.


There was a thread about this 1 to 2 months ago but I can not find it
at the moment.
