Thanks for the replies. I still have 2 questions:

I see that the media is full. But I have purged and relabeled the tape
for testing. From reading the documentation, should this not have marked
the tape to be recycled? Or do I need to move the tape into the scratch
pool for this to happen?
I have also run the btape fill command to test the drive and media
(after purging and relabeling). I get the following output:
btape: btape.c:2736 End of tape 201:0. Volume Bytes=200,404,463,616
It is an LTO 3 tape, so I should get 400GB uncompressed?

Apologies if I'm doing something silly, but is there a way I can "erase"
the tape to ensure that there is nothing on the tape? Other than purge
and relabel?
Thanks
