Dear all,
in order to be able to restore old SAN data in the future, I am planning to duplicate the images as stored on old LTO2-tapes onto LTO4-tapes.
After a succesful start:

5/5/2015 4:21:39 PM - Info bptm(pid=2352) EXITING with status 0 <----------
client process aborted(50)
So after keeping my fingers crossed for about 8 1/2 hours, the duplication ended.
Has anybody got an idea what might be the cause of this problem ?
The detailed status does not give that much information and does not state anything about an error.
I have attached the detailed status in a text-file
Thanks in advance for your advice !
