Dear Mattthew, thank you for your patience.
If you meant /var/log/messages there is a lot of this:

Aug 14 20:08:55 sol /kernel: (sa0:tekram_trm0:0:3:0): failed to write
terminating filemark(s)
Aug 14 20:08:56 sol /kernel: (sa0:tekram_trm0:0:3:0): tape is now frozen-
use an OFFLINE, REWIND or MTEOM command to clear this state

I have a HP Surestore 24i and a Tekram DC-315U,

Sam

Well, I'm now confused- I threw an Exabyte 8505 on my system and it wrote to
the end of a short (15m) tape and spat out:

What does your /var/adm/messages say?
