LTO4 tape from Windows to IBM i

We have 10 LTO4 tapes that were used for Windows server backups. They
haven't been used all that much and, since we no longer have those Windows
servers, thought I would try to reuse them on the IBM i.

When I insert one of them into the LTO4 drive (3580) on the IBM i, it is
immediately ejected and a big honkin' red light comes on on that tape
drive. Hence I don't even get to try an INZTAP DEV(TAP09) CHECK(*NO).

Is there any way I could get this to work? I actually have a bulk eraser,
but assume it will forever make these tapes unusable.

Thanks.
