We had a similar problem labelling 9840 tapes that were pre-labelled. We
were able to label them by specifying the overwrite=yes parm on the label
libv command. I believe a different error message was still generated, but
the tapes still labelled OK and were usable as scratch.

Subject: NEW 3590 CARTRIDGES
I have a question regarding new out of the box 3590 prelabel tape
cartridges. Below are the logs I am receiving.
Are there any others that have had similar problems labeling new volumes. I
have had similar problems on different drives and cartridges. Is the
problem the cartridge or the drive? I would appreciate any help.
Thanks in advance,
Debbie Denham
