I have seen sumthing similar at one of customers, the
env here is SUN3500, SOlaris7 and 9710 (10 x DLT7000).
We haven't been able to any answers from Veritas, SUN
or StorageTek. Latest Solaris patches have been
applied along with newest Jumbo patch 3.4.1.1?? from
Veritas and tape library firmware is 2.00.02
If any thing developes, I will post it.
