Hi,

 

I bought a used Powervault 124T with a LTO-4 drive (SAS).

Using bareos, when finishing the first tape (when writing the final EOF) I am getting I/O errors.

I suspect the drive being dirty and already did about 10 cleaning cycles.

Did not help :-(

In the drive logs there is:

Type (3B)
2018-May-05
21:08:30.265    #009

Drive Reported
a Hardware Error

and

Drv Prev Removal
Type (46)
2018-May-18
19:35:04.878    #011

 

Are there any possibilities to clean the drive manually without replacing it?

Thanks and regards,

Otto
