Tape backup jobs failed

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

The problem is present on a Netbackup Media Server that is installed to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.3 which is connected through fibre to the robot tape drives.
After a Netbackup upgrade the tape drives started to go down intermittently on a daily basis - this means that backups on the customers key systems are failing.
