Hello,to my knowledge a "MTFSF error" is a hardware or device error, so nothing Bareos can do about. What you could try is to switch the tape device, the controller to some other brand and check the cabeling. We once had a problem where load/reload tapes lead to a stuck library and replacing the scsi controller fixed it :-(
For the controller some LSI should be your best choice i guess. Regards Andreas
