In my case it was an HP compressing SCSI DAT drive. HPRC said it was in the code (vstore) not in the hardware and rebooting was the only solution.

Subject: Re: vstore hang
I had the same thing happen to me last week. I also tried to down
the device, and cycled power on it, but no luck. I called the Response
Center to see if they could use debug (or whatever) to abort the process
or release the device, or to determine the cause of the problem. I got
the same response... reboot the system to clear the problem. I believe
the problem started when VSTORE couldn't read the tape directory since
no files were verified. Since I was using an IEM 8mm tape drive, the
HPRC told me it was probably a hardware problem so they wouldn't help
any further. (Kinda understandable, but the device does look like a DAT
to the system, even using the normal DAT drivers.)

Subject: vstore hang
Vstore has hung and is now using all available cpu time. Abort job,
Abortio and loading another tape fail to remove the job. I lowered its
priority so at least the d queue gets some time. The response center
said this is a known problem and needs a reboot to fix. Is there any
other options? Can this be fixed or is it an undocumented feature ;-(.
Below is the vstore job listing:
Any ideas?
