One trick I've done for a bad tape is to alternate "audit vol VOLSER
fix=no" and "move data VOLSER" commands.  It seems each time a little more
infomation was picked up.  I never got everything from a tape, but you may
get lucky and get the data that you need.  I went through about 4 rounds
before I stopped getting more data back from the volume (this was done on
both a 3995 Optical Library from an OS/2 ADSM V2.1 server and a 3590B (in
3494) drive from an AIX TSM 3.7 server).
