I have the IBM RS/6000 F50 series
On the system has the DDR2 tape backup drive (now it bad)
I buy a new tape (DDR2 the same model) and replay it
but no luck i got the problem
the tape drive can not be read/write or in use
verything setting or jumper i do the same the old one but don't understand why it not working
i also try to run the smit mksysb is still error
the image file can not write on ... tape ...
...... can not read/write or in use

and i have the other point on this problem is usually when i insert the tape cartriger in tape drive the light ready should be on but this not on (i bougth 2 DDR2 tape drive and both of them the same problem)

any ideas or suggestion will be very appreciated
