I would look at the medias and the drives.

Is it the same media that gives you the problem?
Is it the same drive that has the error.
When did you clean the drive the last time?

Hi 

 

I know this error is quite generic but some pointers would help

 

We have a 16 Windows 2000 clients backing up on dedicated gigabit LAN to
window 2000 backup server which has a FC card installed. A Scalar 100
library which has SAN module and so takes FC from backup server and converts
to SCSI connected to 4 LTO drives

 

This has been working OK for 4 months and suddenly started getting mainly
media write 84 error and some error 83. First it was for one or two of the
scheduled jobs now it occurs on all jobs including the Catalog. The drives
keep getting 'Downed any ideas

 

Someone said maybe a network issue ?? anyone have any advice

 

 

 

Kind Regards,

 

Imran Khan
