I need a solution

Hi Guys, I have a bunch of tapes I need cataloging that where in my old HP MSL6030 library running a HP Ultirum 3 drive being backed up byBE 2012.

I am cataloging them on a different server using an IBM LTO TD3 drive SCSI drive also with BE 2012.
I have succesfully cataloged about 20 tapes from the same library but I have about 8 that immediatly fail with:

Completed status: Failed Final error: 0xe00084f3 - The block size being used is incorrect. Final error category: Backup Device Errors.

I checked the block size of the old tape drive with the new and both are 64k.

I have followed this Tech article and dont believe its a SCSI issue or tape drive issue.

I have reinstalled the drive just to be sure.

I'm 100% cetain I have data on these tapes but Im not sure what my options are now.

Cheers,

Calis
