Hi... does anyone else see this?

When ADSM is writing to a tape and reaches end of the tape, it does
not mark the tape as FULL immediately.  The tape is left in the
FILLING state.

At some point in the future, ADSM will think the tape is a good one to
append to.  This write operation will also hit EOT, at which point it
is marked as FULL.

This is on DLT 7000 media.

Anyone see this on other media types?
