Re: determine how full a tape is

1 - Seems like a lot of write errors.
2 - After starting to use PRTERRLOG we started to use different volume 
id's for each and every tape cartridge.  This allowed us to see that "Oh, 
that Monday tape from Week 1 is consistently showing errors.  Let's 
replace it with a new tape."

I just looked at our last PRTERRLOG.  Which handled 9 cartridges last 
night.  Of which 3 were 3582's filled full.  None had any write errors.
