Here is the old and new device configs. The old one did work with 2.0.3, 
maybe it should'nt have...

What was perhaps even more intersting was the fact that our already 
labelled and fresh tapes were unusable. Because I did not know for sure 
how to get around that I purged, erased, and relabelled them, after that 
all was fine.

Old Device section:

Device {
   Name = Drive-1
   Media Type = LTO-2
   Archive Device = /dev/nsa0
   LabelMedia = yes;
   Random Access = No;
   AutomaticMount = yes;
   RemovableMedia = yes;
   BSF at EOM = yes;
   Hardware End of Medium = no
   AlwaysOpen = no;
   Maximum Spool Size = 65498251264
   Spool Directory = /dataspool
   AutoChanger = yes
   Alert Command = "sh -c '/usr/local/sbin/tapeinfo -f %c |grep 
TapeAlert|cat'"

}

New Device section

Device {
   Name = Drive-1
   Media Type = LTO-2
   Archive Device = /dev/nsa0
   LabelMedia = yes;
   Random Access = No;
   AutomaticMount = yes;
   RemovableMedia = yes;
   BSF at EOM = no;
   TWO EOF   = no;
   Fast Forward Space File = yes;
   Hardware End of Medium = no;
   Backward Space Record  = no;
   Backward Space File    = no;
   AlwaysOpen = no;
   Maximum Spool Size = 65498251264
   Spool Directory = /dataspool
   AutoChanger = yes
   Alert Command = "sh -c '/usr/local/sbin/tapeinfo -f %c |grep 
TapeAlert|cat'"
}
