I observed an abend S237-04, when reading dataset from tape (using IEBGENER). The manual says it is due to discrepancy between # of blocks read and the value written to EOF label.

The manual also suggests it can be hardware error.
Well... The drive looks OK - only one tape is affected, the media looks OK (i.e. can be read using BLP).

Q: What component to suspect ?
 drive ?
 system ?
 application ?

Any clue ?
