Hi, have you tried it with a brand new tape? or only with tapes the old drive failed on? I had a sdt-9000 die similar, producing write-errors with medium-errors. the Tapes wreer unusable even in a new drive until i took a big magnet and wiped every bit on these tapes. after that they started working again. The defective drive must have written such a mess at the header peace of the tape(s), so no other drive's would write to them until they where bulk erased..... Christoph

Hi,
I have an Amanda Backup that was working fine now, when I try to use: su -c "/usr/sbin/amlabel Daily1 DAILY1-01" backup, the system return me:
st0: Error with sense data: Current st09:00: sense key Medium Error Additional sense indicates Write error ....
If I try: mt erase /dev/st0, it return me:
st0: Error with sense data: Current st09:00: sense key Medium Error Additional sense indicates Write error mt: /dev/tape: Input/Output error
I change my SDT-9000 tape to a new one and the problem persist.
I saw on the logs the messages:
st0: Block limits 1 - 16777215 bytes st0: Error with sense data: Current st09:00 sense key Medium Error Additional sense indicates Write error
Does anyone could help me please ? When a try to recover a backup it worked fine.
