** This may or may not have anything to do with an upgrade to 7.1.2 but the tape backup was working perfectly prior to the upgrade. **
This is what my daily email used to look like:

Backup terminated: backup failed - status: 256
To me it appears that the error is:
ERROR: non-zero exit from: |------------------------------------------------------------
find . -depth -xdev ! -type s ! -regex news/articles ! -regex .*~$ -print0
What does this mean?
Is the backup usable but just un-verified?
Should I report this to the bugtracker?
What is "status: 256"?
Thanks!
