Any suggestion on how to find the number of sectors as fast as possible? In other server that I have, kernel always reports sector number but on this server no sector reported. res 41/40:08:a0:11:76/00:00:53:00:00/00 Emask 0x409 (media error)

AL2099 Mar 29, 2007 11:31 AM Running Legato Networker 7.2.2 J on Windows 2003. Recently upgraded from 7.1.3. Seeing issues in i/o error bad our daemon.log indicating that I/O errors are aborting backups or are finishing tapes long before they've reached capacity. This is resulting in several of our larger save sets to go un-backed up without multiple retries. This issue is spanning multiple servers of various purposes, but seems to be tied mostly to larger save sets (200g+).This issue started, more or less, after the upgrade. Could be a coincidence. Doesn't seem to be consistent with tape numbers (some are much older, some are fairly new). Doesn't seem to be consistent with drives (this example spans two different ones). Below is a daemon.log sample. There are others related to this that are occurring fairly regularly. I figured I'd check here to get an opinion as to source before I escalated to EMC Support.Thank you for any help our advice you can provide!------------------------------------------------------------------03/29/07 09:43:13 nsrd: media warning: \\.\Tape0 writing: The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error., at file 35 record 2550503/29/07 09:43:13 nsrd: media notice: LTO Ultrium-2 tape XXXX on \\.\Tape0 is full03/29/07 09:43:13 nsrd: media notice: LTO Ultrium-2 tape XXXX used 70 GB of 190 GB capacity03/29/07 09:43:13 nsrd: media warning: verification of volume "XXXX", volid 3388920884 failed, read open error: drive status is Drive reports no error
