RH9 is currently unsupported.  There's some hacks that have appeared on
this board so search the history.
 
This is also the classic sign of a mis-mapped drive index number on the
media server.  For example, Drive Index 1 on the media server used to be
/dev/rmt/1 and now it's /dev/rmt/2.  Did your devices remap when you
rebooted?

Does anyone know if there are any special steps that need to be taken to
make backups work between a Linux Client and a Solaris Master/Media
Server?. I've installed the client software on the Linux box and
rebooted both systems, but the backup just sits there after loading the
tape, as if it's waiting for the Linux Client to send data to the
Master/Media Server.
