Flexbackup

I am using SME 5.6 , Tandberg SLR5 Tape drive.

I have installed dmc-mitel-flexbackup-0.0.1-2.noarch.rpm and left all setting to default.

Below is a dump of my flexbackup.conf and flexbackup/all.latest.gz

The log file shows:-

buffer (writer): write of data failed: Input/output error
bytes to write=10240, bytes written=-1, total written 10K
DUMP: Broken pipe
DUMP: The ENTIRE dump is aborted.

Any help would be very much appreciated,

John A
