tape input/output error


Dear all,

I have a tape which is detected as '/dev/st0' . When I tried to write the tar output it says 'input/output error'.
('tar -cvf /dev/st0 /tmp')

when I tried 'mt -f /dev/st0 rewind' it says 'no medium found'.
Actually the tape is inserted inside the tray .

Any help!!.
