I am receiving an error 1029 when attempting to perform a save_site command. The tape drive is loaded with the correct tape and the lights are functioning. The process will wait for 120 seconds then timeout. If you press the key you will receive the error as follows:
*** Error in open(): IOABORT- I/O error
ex-8200: errno = 1029
tar: /dev/mt2: IOABORT- I/O error
*** Error in open(): IOABORT- I/O error
ex-8500: errno = 1029
Save of files complete
I also get another (warning) message:
*******************************************
Verify the tape contains the correct files
*******************************************
tar: /dev/mt2: IOABORT- I/O error
Can not open /dev/mt2 device
Can anyone please shed some light on this subject? I have tried using a blank tape, and swapped another tape drive which I believe is good and the problem still persists.
