Odds are you are switching tapes around the 65,501st file
This is a known issue when using DDS + Labeled media.

I believe this is fixed if you use DLT and have patch MPELX94 or its
supercede installed but I'm not sure on that point.

>
> We have implemented a new total backup job for one of our
> customers, and it now wants a second tape.  The old job still
> requires one tape.  The old job did the following:
>
> :FILE TOTBKXL;DEV=TAPE
> :STORE @[log in to unmask]@;*TOTBKXL;DIRECTORY
>
> The new job does the following:
>
> :FILE T;DEV=TAPE;LABEL=SYSBKP
> :BUILD STROUT;REC=-150,,F,ASCII;DISC=10000000;TEMP
> :STORE @[log in to unmask]@;*T;DIRECTORY;PROGRESS=2 > STROUT
>
> The differences are:
> *The new job uses a labeled tape
> *The new job uses the PROGRESS option
> *The new job redirects the STORE output to a file to be
> checked for errors
>
> Does anyone see any reason why one of these differences would
> cause the backup now to span two tapes?  The customer says
> they are using only 125m DDS tapes.
>
> Any help is much appreciated!
