Craig, I took a look at XferLOG.bad.z file and I couldn't see any errors from tar at all. I'm assuming that the errors would be at the end of the file. At the time the error occurred it was backing up /music. This mount point contains 9351 files. Would that cause a problem ? Would it be better to break out this mount point with different sub-directories ?
