hi,
Since a couple of days, it's impossible to label 9840 Tape on a Networker 6.1.4 server (windows 2000). We have the following error :
"label write, unknown error 32"
or "cannot set record size : block size ioctl failed"
Sometimes a tape can be labelled. When i use it for a backup, it begins correctly but after a few seconds i have this message :
nsrd: media warning: \\.\Tape1 writing: unknown error 21 (0x15), at file 2 record 143
nsrd: media notice: 9840 tape N10860 on \\.\Tape1 is full

nsrd: media warning: verification of volume "N10860", volid 2880035073 failed, can not read record 139 of file 2 on 9840 tape N10860
nsrd: media notice: verification of volume "N10860", volid 2880035073 failed, volume is being marked as full.
The only change we have made was to upgrade the 9840 FW (1.35.109 now, 1.35.105 before).
An idea?
Thanks
