Hi,
how nice of them. Now if only they would fix the bug that crashes the kernel if

Remco,
I don't know if you noticed that IBM updated the lin_tape.fixlist file to
include RHEL 7.4. I got a notice about an update but didn't see anything
changing, version-wise. This was the file from November, 2017

I wouldn't be too concerned about this. We have installed the "latest"
lin_tape drivers on our RHEL Linux systems waaay before the readme said it
supported the OS level we were installing it on. I wouldn't suspect a

fixes for issues introduced in our current level 3.0.20… Found out another nice

Hello there,
errno 16 usually corresponds to 'device busy'. I have observed this error
mostly on systems with shared library (shared=yes) and with storage agents
that had some problems to communicate with TSM server.
Are you facing the issue only on a single tape drive, or all? Are they
