I am getting a media read error 85 when trying to restore some files from
an LTO-1 tape.  I already swapped tape drives to rule out a bad drive.

This is on Netbackup 5.1 MP6 Windows.  This system is up for legacy
restores only.  The backup was made on a media server that no longer has
drives attached.  I connected a standalone LTO-1 drive (fairly new) to my
master server and configured fail over restore server to point to the
master.  The job starts to run and fails.  I already checked the number
data buffers and size data buffers to confirm they are the same as when it
was backed up.  The tape has been frozen also due to the errors from the
failed restore attempts.  I am not sure if this matters or not because I
still get the same errors.  Also the tape was going to expire so we ran the
bpexpdate and extended the retention before it expired.
