Is there a known problem with writing multiple archives to a Tecmar NS20 
tapedrive Travan TR5)? I've tried two different units and get the same 
results.


/sbin/dump -0a -f /dev/nrsa0 /dev/da0s1a
  DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Mon Mar 19 05:27:06 2001
  DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch
  DUMP: Dumping /dev/da0s1a (/) to /dev/nrsa0
  DUMP: mapping (Pass I) [regular files]
  DUMP: mapping (Pass II) [directories]
  DUMP: estimated 37811 tape blocks.
  DUMP: dumping (Pass III) [directories]
  DUMP: dumping (Pass IV) [regular files]
  DUMP: DUMP: 37814 tape blocks on 1 volume
  DUMP: finished in 31 seconds, throughput 1219 KBytes/sec
  DUMP: Closing /dev/nrsa0
  DUMP: DUMP IS DONE
/sbin/dump -0a -f /dev/nrsa0 /dev/da0s1e
  DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Mon Mar 19 05:27:38 2001
  DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch

  DUMP: mapping (Pass I) [regular files]
  DUMP: mapping (Pass II) [directories]

  DUMP: write error 20 blocks into volume 1
  DUMP: Do you want to restart?: ("yes" or "no") no
  DUMP: The ENTIRE dump is aborted.

And in /var/log/messages:

Thank you for any guidance.
