Hi all:
running SME5.5 Update 2 on VIA Epia board. 2x 40G Maxtor on IDE0, Seagate Travan 40 ATAPI on IDE1 master, 48x CD-Rom on IED1 slave.
I've seen *lots* of stuff here but still have no definite resolution.
Steps taken so far:
** checked correct loading of ide-scsi and st as per Seagate advisory
** Installed flexbackup-0.9.8-07es.noarch.rpm from 5.6 to fix reported probs with previous script version.
Current symptoms: from SSH remote shell -
- dump runs fine using
(dump -0 -b 10 -a -f - / | gzip -4) | buffer -m 3m -s 10k -u 100 -t -p \
| 75 -B -o /dev/nst0
- flexbackup script sometimes runs fine from remote shell using
flexbackup -fs all
- from web console on running scheduled backup I get:

***
which sounds like a broken tape drive, but it's not true. If I run the backup again it works. Seems to be changing the tape that causes this. I saw notes on this very issue which is why I installed the later flexbackup.
Any suggestions?
Will the latest beta6 flexbackup and so on run on 5.5? I don't want to upgrade at the moment, see my other thread...
TIA!
