As the title suggest our TL2000 is currently labeling all media that enters a certain tape sled as "bad tape". We had this issue approx one month ago, we swapped out the drive sled with one we had in another unit and inventoried the tapes, this removed the bad tape label.
However this is now happening on the replacement drive sled, we have run multiple cleaning cycles on the drive utilizing two different cleaning tapes. We believe the cleaning tapes to be less than 12 months old, although the Web GUI reports them as invalid cleaning takes when running the cleaning cycle.
We have also tried updating the firmware on the drives with no change.
Has anyone encountered a similar issues to this in the past? Any insight will be greatly appreciated, We have also taken a drive dump of the offending drive which we will attach.
