Hello,
im currently setting up my Tape Backup Infrastructure. But I get a Task error at the end of my Backups, because the unload media fails (export media set is enabled in the Backup Jobs).
But after it fails, the Tape shows up unloaded in the right spot.
The Output of the Backup Jobs, where it goes wrong:
2024-02-09T21:00:03+01:00: end backup XXX/2024-02-09T17:32:10Z"
2024-02-09T21:00:03+01:00: percentage done: 100.00% (92/92 groups)
2024-02-09T21:00:03+01:00: append media catalog
2024-02-09T21:00:04+01:00: rewind media
2024-02-09T21:07:15+01:00: TASK ERROR: unload drive failed - scsi command failed: transport error

Sadly i missed the Time and havent checked the Library, what the output of it says. I would assume that the rewinding just takes to log so the Task runs in a timeout. After that the Library moves the Tape, when the Drive says it is ready to move. Is there a configuration i can change to handle that?
 
IMO, never assume anything. I would try to restore a recent backup to a temporary directory or different drive, and verify the restored file against the original.
