Ok that's cool. Anything in your logs to indicate a potential problem at
the time of failure perhaps?

84's are mostly common on tape, but I am aware that you can get possible
problems that reflect an 84 message. This is most likely to be scsi
related problems.

There is an advance 84 troubleshooting guide on the Symantec Site if it
is of any interest.

Just seems odd that all 9 of these jobs failed at the same time with an
84 but others after it were just fine. I reran a couple of them now and
they are all succeeding now. I also forgot these go to disk staging and
not direct to tape.
