Bart, You aren't hitting a read timeout on the backup image, are you (long seek time to the data etc)?
Tar log on the client, and bpbrm log on the master server... That line: 9/14/2011 8:23:15 AM - Info bpbrm(pid=17433) media manager for backup id client_1315796976 exited with status 150 In your detailed log generally indicates that bpbrm chose to terminate the session - and a couple of lines above that entry in the bpbrm log should be a pointer as to why it was terminated...

We have a P1 case open with Symantec but they are as clueless as we are. Environment: 1 Solaris Master, 2 Solaris Media Servers (10Gbit connected), Data is backed up to DSSU, restores are coming from both tape and disk (same issue). We noticed that if we restore some data, we get this status code from time to time. When resuming the job (a couple of times) it eventually succeeds. So we believed it would be a network issue. BUT... When we try a restore towards the Media Server itself (having the tape drive connected directly to it, so network involved in the restore) then we get the same error. It even gets worse. Sometimes we get the status 24 even before there was a tape mounted (see log below). Anyone seen this before and knows a resolution ?
