Fixes to your tape library? Are you talking firmware fixes you downloaded
specifically for that tape library from Fix Central? Or are you talking
about IBM i PTF's?

Anyone else getting the subject message after upgrading to IBM i 7.4?
I have one lpar that gets this on almost a nightly basis. I
delete/rebuild the media library. The next night the backup starts,
saves a bunch of stuff, and then dies with this. On rare occasions I
can get through a backup.
