Hi,

This seems like its going to be one of three things:

1. Bad tape - try some other media.
2. Bad tape drive - see if you can attach a different device and re-run the make_recovery.

or

3. You're missing some SCSI patches.

Hi,

Try to rewind the tape and to clean up the tape drive.
One of these things can help.
Also it's good idea to replace the tape.
