Hi again, The only errors that I could pull out were in the /var/log/messages:

detected These errors were produced from running: ./btape -c bacula-sd.conf
/dev/sa0rewindtest It seems I get the 'NO SENSE ILI (length mismatch)' and 'No
additional sense information' messages the first time i perform a rewind on the
tape from a fresh boot. All other tape rewinds that I perform do not cause
these errors. I am still in the process of obtaining a different SCSI card to
test to see if I have the same issues. Thanks, Brad.
