Check the connections from the server to the tape - more than likely you should be using /dev/rmt/4. You might want to just remove /dev/rmt/* and then try getting it to see the tape drive again (making it /dev/rmt/0 ). Are you sure it's a good tape drive? Got the scsi terminator on or is it self terminating?
