But the problem is not fixed:

FAILURE DUMP SUMMARY:
  rpi4 /usr/lib lev 0  partial taper: source server crc (efe0c707:1538583893) and input server crc (fa79e777:1538583893) 
differ)
  rpi4 /usr/lib lev 0  was successfully retried

But the failed dump is still in the holding disk:

root@coyote:config-bak$ ls -l /sdb/dumps/20201219020104/
total 1502560
-rw------- 1 amanda amanda 1538616661 Dec 19 02:13 rpi4._usr_lib.0

From the emailed report:

  driver: rpi4 /usr/lib 20201219020104 0 [Will retry dump because of holding disk error: source server crc 
(efe0c707:1538583893) and input server crc (fa79e777:1538583893) differ)]
  taper: tape Dailys-24 kb 16495500 fm 79 [OK]

and:
rpi4  /usr/lib 0 3273 1467  -- 5:23 10366.4  0:01 1502523.0 PARTIAL FLUSH  5:11  4831.3

Even the sizes don't match so of course the crc's won't either.
And it only seems to effect random level 0's, am I silently running out 
of dtime? What would that error look like?
