Error in Redhat 7.0 messages log

Hi all,

I have a script to perform the hot backup of oracle every night by using tar. Last night, I discovered that the backup is failed and the following error is shown in the messages log.

Nov 1 00:30:23 oradb kernel: st: failed to enlarge buffer to 5242880 bytes.

The command I use is
'tar -cvf /dev/st0 -b 10240 ...'

This backup script worked fine from Monday except yesterday. Does anyone know what is the problem ?

Regards,
Patrick
