The system is running 3.1-STABLE w/ Amanda 2.4.1p1.

While attempting to write a label to a TR4 (travan 4gb native) tape, I
received the following error:

Mar 28 21:14:45 earthtone /kernel: (sa0:ahc0:0:1:0): SPACE. CDB: 11 1 ff ff ff 0 
Mar 28 21:14:45 earthtone /kernel: (sa0:ahc0:0:1:0): ILLEGAL REQUEST asc:2c,0
Mar 28 21:14:45 earthtone /kernel: (sa0:ahc0:0:1:0): Command sequence error
Mar 28 21:14:45 earthtone /kernel: (sa0:ahc0:0:1:0): unable to backspace over one of double filemarks at EOD- opting for safety
Mar 28 21:14:59 earthtone /kernel: (sa0:ahc0:0:1:0): SPACE. CDB: 11 1 ff ff ff 0 
Mar 28 21:14:59 earthtone /kernel: (sa0:ahc0:0:1:0): ILLEGAL REQUEST asc:2c,0

Mar 28 21:14:59 earthtone /kernel: (sa0:ahc0:0:1:0): unable to backspace over one of double filemarks at EOD- opting for safety

Unfortunately, after I rebooted once, further attempts to use amlabel
resulted in the command hanging (ie, CTRL-C, CTRL-Z, and kill were of no
use).

The drive is detected as follows:

Mar 28 21:57:15 earthtone /kernel: sa0 at ahc0 bus 0 target 1 lun 0
Mar 28 21:57:15 earthtone /kernel: sa0: <HP T4000s 1.10> Removable Sequential Access SCSI-2 device 
Mar 28 21:57:15 earthtone /kernel: sa0: 3.300MB/s transfers

I've done backups using the QIC-3095 (2gb native) tapes under FreeBSD
2.2.7.  Unfortunately, the use of a larger tape and newer OS seems to have
gotten me in a bind.

The machine is stable as of 03/28.

If anyone has had success with the T4000 and TR4 tape, please let me know.

Thanks in advance,

- Rob
