no idea, if we can find out what triggered the original message.     Without doing anything physical, I did an umount storage=LTO4 from bacula and then went and did a full btape rawfill without a single problem on the volume:

*status
 Bacula status: file=0 block=1
 Device status: ONLINE IM_REP_EN file=0 block=1
btape: btape.c:2133 Device status: 641. ERR=
*rewind
btape: btape.c:578 Rewound "LTO4" (/dev/nst0)
*rawfill
btape: btape.c:2847 Begin writing raw blocks of 2097152 bytes.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ (...)
Write failed at block 384701. stat=-1 ERR=No space left on device
btape: btape.c:410 Volume bytes=806.7 GB. Write rate = 106.1 MB/s
btape: btape.c:608 Wrote 1 EOF to "LTO4" (/dev/nst0)

zero problems at all.

This probably isn't helpful, but why does Bacula think that the volume is read-only?
