The problem might be that FullBackup is a different volume than FullBackup3. The used capacity doesn't matter much - typically, using hardware compression, you will get great variances of tape capacity. Like, 1 GB of /dev/zero compresses to about nothing, while 1 GB of compressed video will not be noticeably compressed. When the tape drive reports a tape as full you can usually rely on it being full. I just recommend to mount the tape requested or another usable one, i.e. a tape with status Append, Purged, or Recycle.
