Thanks Eric!

Now what should I do with the tape when I'm through with this operation?
Is there a way to check on the integrity of the tape?  Could it be that the
drive needs cleaning?   I have a 3570-B02, does it clean itself (the
cleaning cartridge tape is inside the unit)?   If not, how do I schedule,
get notified when the drives need cleaning?

Thanks in advance,
