Error Searching In File Backup to Tape fails

Thread needs solution

Hi We have ABRv10 latest update installed that we have started having and error searching in file while backing up to a DLT Tape drive. We thought the tape drive my be at fault so it has been replaced along with all the tapes but the error persists. This had been working for quite a while (about 9 months) without issue.

This is a Win 2003 R2 server, with a Quantum DLT vs80 tape drive.

This is the error I am seeing.

Hi Yana,

I have started a ticket on this, number 01047458 . Have check through most of the instructions and don't see anything that applies to what I am seeing. Like I said this had been working for quite a while. I just figured the tape drive was starting to die, but replacing it didn't see to resolve anything and the Quantum diagnostics test passes with flying colors.
