What type of tapes are you using? Do if you get any error messages coming up and if so what are they?

If you are using 20 gig uncompressed tapes like DDS IV, you probably ran out of space on the tape. Did you try to view the free space on the tapes from the media tab?

When the tape comes out it dont give us no errors or nothing, we are using compressed tapes also, still no idea in whats going on.

Can you confirm what type of tapes you are using? Eg DDS3, DDS4, DLT, LTO etc.
