Anton,

Two more things that you may want to try before you give up . . . if you ran
AUDIT NOFIX are:

1. MOVE DATA - I doubt this will give you a different result
2. Try to restore data on the volume:
Run a Q CONTENT volumename to get a list of file names
        Try to restore each file individually ( make sure to try several files,
especially those located at the end of the tape)
This may allow you to read past the tape mark
