Dear bareos-users,
I'm using 16.2.4 and found out that smartctl reports errors when querying my
tape library (HP G2 1/8 Storeever with Ultrium 920 LTO-3 SCSI):
smartctl -x /dev/sg5
results in:

converting it the binary output to utf-8, I don't get smarter:

I found this relevant post from Andrei Cenja
https://marc.info/?l=bacula-users&m=127919961108561
but without any reply.
Does somebody else encounter those errors?
I don't find anything in the error log via the autoloader webinterface (while
previous errors, e.g. tape I/O errors, are in the error log). Also I have
myself send the tapealert as described in the bareos manual and there are no
errors listed.
Because the error numbers are also constantly changing (while library is idle),
I'm not sure whether I should take them serious at all.
