xfsdump installed from RPM (from oss.sgi.com),
version 2.2.3-1
When attempting to run a dump (local or remote) it aborts with:
xfsdump: drive_scsitape.c:1985: do_get_write_buf: Assertion
`contextp->dc_nextp < contextp->dc_recendp' failed.
Ok, so what am I doing wrong here? I don't see anything in the list
archives that sticks out.

The drive is an 8mm and seems to work:

I'm running a test on it with plain "tar" to make sure.
Thanks in advance,
