Since it is already in DLT4000 format, it will continue
to be written in that format. NBU will typically label
tapes once.
My suggestion has always been to run dd, we called
Quantum and they confirmed that its probably the best
process. Then bplabel the tape and the DRIVE should
mark the tape as being in 7000 format versus 4000.
Attached is a quick script to help in the process. If
you don't get the attachment, let me know I'll include
it in the mail next time.
