hi all,
i am using RHEL 5 on IBM-P series having IBM Tape drive LTO3. I can backup small size of file/s. but when i try to backup file/files with larger size it stops working.
even i have changed the tape cartrage (disk). but still in trouble. 

root# mt -f /dev/st0 status

SCSI 2 tape drive:
File number=0, block number=0, partition=0.
Tape block size 0 bytes. Density code 0x44 (no translation).
Soft error count since last status=0
General status bits on (41010000):
BOT ONLINE IM_REP_EN


# tar cvf /dev/st0 /etc

tar: Removing leading `/' from member names
