Hi All,

       anyone experiencing anything similar? Im thinking that a driver
is having a problem with the 2.6 kernel? Any ideas?

The scsi module often gets auto-cleaned away if the tape channel is the only LUN on it. re-probe it in and check the lsmod before fireing off the backup.


I might also thing about pre-computing the file list, with find, and then 'cat'ting it, rolling the backup in a later phase, rather than the pipelined approach, so that there are not 'find' induced waits, as would occur the dd catches up with the cpio, and the cpio inout is blocked, as the find has not yet offered the next name to handle.

(the reason that the module might get auto-cleaned away again, during such waits.)
