Hmmm... never seen this one before. I have two identical Dell PowerEdge 1300 servers. One backs up fine. The other doesn't. The failing system finds the tape just fine: sa0 at ahc0 bus 0 target 6 lun 0 sa0: <ARCHIVE Python 04106-XXX 7350> Removable Sequential Access SCSI-2 device This is a basic DDS3 tape drive. When I do a "mt status", I get: mt: /dev/nsa0: Input/output error Additionally, the "drive" activity light starts blinking when I do this. Any thoughts? Been through the archives, everything seems fine. :( ==ml -- Michael Lucas mwlucas@blackhelicopters.org http://www.blackhelicopters.org/~mwlucas/ Big Scary Daemons: http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/q/Big_Scary_Daemons To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
