Hello,
I've not encountered this, but this may help:  (our tape unit is on  
LDEV 7)

devctrl.mpexl.telesup dev=7;load=online

We include this command in a file which 'tests' the tape for having  
loaded correctly.  We store a few files to the tape, then issue this  
command to put it back online.  It may help to force the tape to  
begin at the beginning.
