Perhaps the write tab on the cassette
  is in the read-only position.

The other drive if you write without problems.

It is possible that at a physical level there is some
blockage by license to be able to use the 2 drives
completely.

Who manufactured the drives?  HP or IBM?  Can you find out the model
numbers?

Have you tried running the OEM diagnostics on them to see what
they say?  The HP ones are particularly detailed and informative.

Cheers,
Adam.

Hi.

The 2 drive is LTO5.   The tape is LTO5.

S/O Debian 9 .

mtx -f  /dev/nst0  weof(OK on Drive 1).
unload,   and load drive1
mtx -f  /dev/nst1  weof(Result=  read-only).
Same tape

btape and tapeinfo show  same configuration.

 And  view "interesting"  config  on  WEB Tape.   is:Drive0 is
Bridge. and  Drive1 is not Bridge.

from the rest I see no difference between the drives. unless at the
hardware level it is already defective.

Hello,


You did not mention whether or not you
  are using Bacula.  For Bacula there is no license blockage.  Often
  writing of older LTO formats (e.g. writing LTO-3 on an LTO-5)
  drive is not supported by the drive manufacturer.  In your case, I
  suspect that the problem is in your OS where the drive device
  filename is not defined to have write permission.


chmod +w   might solve the
  problem.a


Best regards,
Kern
