I have had this very same problem. In my case, it happen when the server is
shutdown "uncleanly", and the tape was on the drive.... I managed to make it
force by adding the TWO EOF = yes option, but I'm not sure on it :-S .
This has happen to me with LTO-4 and LTO-3 drives. As for LTO-2: this far
no problem. I don't have the brand/model of each, but the LTO-4 is IBM and
the LTO-3 is HP (I don't remember the model), LTO-2 is a Dell PowerVault,
and off course, I don't remember the model number :( .

Me too. :( I don't fully understand the effect of the TWO EOF setting,
because with it enabled, the btape tests fails, nevertheless, the system
works just fine with it enabled, and so far (three weeks), the backup system
is working just fine (altought I have and eye on it alwayas).
