We have a dedicated media server built on an AMD box running RHEL 5.2
(2.6.18-92.1.13.el5 #1 SMP Thu Sep 4 03:51:21 EDT 2008 x86_64).

Over time, our LTO2 drives will go down one by one.  A "scan" doesn't
seem to show any issues but if I "vmoprcmd -up" them, they'll just go
down again.  After I collect a half-dozen down drives, I reboot the
server and they'll be fine again for while.  

Anybody else having this trouble? Have you solved it?
