Hello Everyone,

If anyone have faced or know anything regarding the issue I am facing, Please help me figure this out!!!!

I have a DSS tape drive connected to a 166 MHz UDB. I can read and write data perfectly from the tape. But the only problem is after I run the backup I get messages like:

tar: Cannot write to /dev/tape: Input/output error
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

I really don’t know what is going wrong behind the scene. Is the problem with the tape drive or anything else?

Please provide me a way to get out of this error!!!!

Micheal.
