Backup error

I have this error:
SQL Server Scheduled Task: 43, 'BackupIBMDat - tempdb' --
Status: Failed
-- Task Invoked on: 1/21/04 1:30:00 AM -- Message: Can't
open dump device '\\.\TAPE0', device error or device off
line. Please consult the SQL Server error log for more
details. (Message 3201)
please help meso does SQL Server error log have anything regarding this?
see if you can run a backup to that \\TAPE0 device. Is the spelling right
for the device name?
