Hi Robert,
The problem has been solved after reconfiguring DLT drive. Now tapes are
filling upto full capacity(around 60GB).
Thanks,
Srinivas.

I think your first default block size is fine; there should be no need
to set it with NSR_DEVICE_BUFFER_SIZE. The default is 131072, you can do
a scanner -nv on the tape and it will report this. The GUI reports this
as 128K.
Are ALL your tapes filling prematurely? It could very well be a bad tape
or bad drive.
