Hi krishna,

first of all have you tried to search for this error? there are several threads with the same error.

check hardware, the tape is not reachable.

what you also can do is to use the cleanup tape:

check the required vol no. using

brbackup -q

Initialize the tape using the following command:

brbackup -c -i force -v <volume no>

than try to rerun the redologbackup.

Regards,

Jens
