different for that system.
Look that your dmesg recognizes the tape as SCSI-2, not 3:

Tape is fine I was using it in work in DDS2 tape drive. I have some
problem with brand new tapes (DDS2 and DDS3
How do you know it's actually writing? Can you remove the tape and
put it in another DDS3 drive and see your files?
