Re: have problem with tar -xvf
There are certain things you need to check it.
First one is to check the drive. It might have some issue. Try to clean the drive or replace it if possible.
Second one is, media could be defective. Check with new media.
Third one is I/O bottleneck.

Re: have problem with tar -xvf
We can do some low level troubleshooting at first to check if there is no hardware issue:
* Check the media, OLD media takes much more time. So you can try taking backup on a new media to ensure this.
* Can try cleaning the tape drive through cleaning tapes.
* If this delay in backup is repeating again and again, try using different tape drive.
Thats all from my side.
Regds,

Re: have problem with tar -xvf
might be at that time some other IO processes had been having on the disk also that we can suspect to have caused that muchof delay .. assuming that the disk is OK.
can you please give whole of the tar command that you might be using.
regards
sujit

Re: have problem with tar -xvf
Could you check tar patch level?. If it is old, install the latest tar patch.
# swlist -l patch |grep -i tar
