The system is a HP B132L with two external hardrives and an external tape drive. The tape Drive is last in the chain. It is a HP C2954D which is identical to the one it repalced. The tape does work. If I type backup at the command prompt it will immediately begin writing files to the tape drive. It just won't operate in restore mode.

Description
Prior to Version 2.0, this device was referenced by tmscp(4).
The TMSCP driver provides a standard tape drive interface, as described in This is a driver for any controller that adheres to the Tape
Mass Storage Control Protocol (TMSCP). The TMSCP controllers communicate with the host through a packet-oriented protocol termed the Tape
Mass Storage Control Protocol. This driver also supports n-buffered reads and writes to the raw tape interface (used with streaming tape
drives). See for further details.
