If that's OK, I'll give it a spin using some Windoze based tape backup software, and the MS initiator.. I'm guessing that the caller (e.g. mt via the st kernel module, or scsitape directly via the sg interface) sets a timeout when it issues the SCSI ERASE command, and that this needs to get through to the bsg code in tgtd somehow?
