rmsf -H 56/52.0.0
ioscan -fn
insf -e
I'm going with the assumption that something changed regarding drives that were added and/or removed since the last reboot. After the insf command, run ioscan again and check for your tape drive.

Re: error reading tape C1537A
Try to write with another tool (tar/dd) to the drive and watch the syslog. If you see I/O errors, replace the drive.
Hope this helps!

Torsten.

Re: error reading tape C1537A
Is the tape you are trying to recover from an older version of HP-UX?
I know that if you are trying to recover an hp-ux 10.20 fbackup volume on hp-ux 11.0 then you will get the message exactly as the latter message shows.
If this is the case you will need to recover the volume on an older version of hp-ux, however, unless you know the version of hp-ux that the tape was cut on, you maybe trying a number of different verisons of OS.
For future reference, if you are cutting tapes for archive purposes, it is best to use tar.
Mike.

Re: error reading tape C1537A
If the operation failed with read or I/O error, then it is possible your tape drive is failing.
