Try this just to make sure how the tapes are formatted.  INZ a tape on each
drive then DSPTAP,  that will
show you how the tape was initialized:
                       Display Tape Volume Information

Device . . . . . . :   TAP01                    Volume ID  . . . . :
NSAVE
Owner ID . . . . . :   QSYSOPR           Density  . . . . . :   *QIC525
Type . . . . . . . :   *SL                      Code . . . . . . . :
*EBCDIC

Ain't OEM tape fun?!?
