We had several problems with lto-4 tape drives a while back. The problems were
fixed with a couple of firmware upgrades for the tape drives.
Our tape drives are IBM's.

It can also be a bad tape drive which is both the device with the problem and
the device reporting the error. If the tape drive is broken, it may not tell
you that it is broken but falsely that the tape cart is broken.
We have also seen times when something in the netbackup header is out of sync
Hello,
Unless you also enable client compression when you enable the client side
encryption, you lose the tape compression. How much you lose depends on how
much compression you had.

The last time I looked at DPM, it looked like a nice product, if a site was

it, the product does not work with other OS's.
The first pass of DPM only wrote to disk. If a site wanted an offsite tape

Hello Patricia,
You might want to try to upgrade the lto-4 firmware. When we upgraded one of
our systems to use lto-4 tape drives we had a few problems until we upgraded
the firmware to the 89B2 level. We are now testing the 94D4 level.

Hello Steve,
I do not know if the Decru LKM can do this.
But we are planning to do LTO4 native encryption with IBM tape drives in an IBM
3584 tape library.
We found that the EMC RSA key manager will handle keys for the LTO-4 tape
drives. But to do so you have to have the IBM EKM (Encryption Ke
Are there more then one cluster group.
We found that we would be given a cluster name, but there might be 3 or 4
different groups that could move between the physical nodes.
So we might have vir1 and group2 on node 1a and group3 on node 1b. Which would
then lead to the 71 errors and netbackup
